SUNRISE, Fla. -- Jesper Bratt scored his second NHL hat trick, and the New Jersey Devils defeated the Florida Panthers for the second time in three days, 6-2 at Amerant Bank Arena on Thursday.

Jesper Bratt recorded his second career hat trick and Stefan Noesen scored two goals, lifting the New Jersey Devils to a 6-2 victory over the Florida Panthers on Thursday in Sunrise, Fla.

Jesper Bratt is such a fun player to watch, but last game you could sense the frustration. He put up eight shots on goal in the team's most recent contest but wasn’t able to find the back of the net. Bratt is averaging 2.89 shots per game and has hit this number with ease throughout the early parts of the season.

In the first five minutes of the second period, right off a faceoff win for the Panthers, Sam Reinhart’s shot from the dot beat Jake Allen far side to tie the game, 2-2. As they have done multiple times throughout the season, New Jersey responded to their opponents goal with multiple strong shifts.
