Montreal Canadiens forward Patrik Laine was humble when reflecting on his hat trick performance in the team's 6-1 rout of the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday night. Laine scored three power-play goals similarly, showcasing his lethal one-timer shot.

Despite his offensive output, Laine downplayed the overall quality of his game.

"I think it was okay. I think it found some holes today, but I think overall, for at least for myself, it was kind of an average game, not in terms of the like, if you take away the goals like, I've had million times better games than that,” Laine said after the game.
