Scott Hartnell (born April 18, 1982) is a Canadian professional ice hockey player currently playing for the Philadelphia Flyers of the National Hockey League (NHL).

Playing career

Prior to entering the NHL, Scott Hartnell played two seasons of Canadian Junior-A hockey for the Lloydminster Blazers of the Alberta Junior Hockey League (AJHL).[1] He then spent two seasons playing for the Prince Albert Raiders of the Western Hockey League (WHL). In the 1999–2000 season, Hartnell was not only the captain of the Raiders, but he lead the team with 82 points and was named team MVP.[1] He was also chosen to play for Bobby Orr in the Canadian Hockey League (CHL) Top Prospects Game.[1]

Hartnell was the sixth overall pick in the 2000 NHL Entry Draft by the Nashville Predators. Considered a gritty power forward at 6 feet 2 inches tall, the left winger was the youngest player in franchise history to play for the Predators. He was also the youngest player in the NHL in the 2000–01 season.[2] Hartnell's first NHL game was played in Japan against the Pittsburgh Penguins as part of a 2 game set planned by the NHL to raise international interest in the league.[3] Hartnell has stated that this game marks his favorite NHL moment.

Through six seasons with the Predators, Hartnell played in 453 games, accumulating 93 goals and 118 assists. During the 2003–04 NHL season, Scott had 3 game-winning goals, two of which occurred in overtime. In his first career playoff series in the against the Detroit Red Wings in 2004, he tied the team high with 3 points (1G, 2A). During the 2004–05 NHL lockout, he helped Vålerenga win the Norwegian Championship, scoring 12 goals in 11 playoff games.[1]

In the 2005–06 NHL season, Hartnell accumulated a career high 25 goals and 23 assists, for a total of 48 points. Additionally, Hartnell scored his first career hat trick on February 4, 2006 in a game against the Chicago Blackhawks. The first two goals of the trifecta were scored against Adam Munro, with the final goal coming against Craig Anderson. The following season Hartnell continued to produce similar offensive numbers. He also set franchise records for career penalty minutes (461)[4] and for the fastest two goals by an individual (23 seconds).[5] All of this was despite a broken foot which resulted in Hartnell missing the entire month of March.[6]

On June 18, 2007, Hartnell along with Kimmo Timonen were traded to the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for a first-round pick previously acquired from Nashville for Peter Forsberg. Hartnell almost immediately signed a six-year contract worth $25.2 million.[7]

In his first season with the Flyers, Hartnell was one of a series of five Flyers suspended for questionable on-ice hits.[8] Specifically, Hartnell was suspended for two games as a result of a hit on current teammate Andrew Alberts, previously of the Boston Bruins.[9] Additionally, Hartnell's offensive production slowed initially. While he registered his first point as a Flyer in the home opener, [10] his first goal (an empty net goal) did not come until the 16th game of the season.[11] However, his scoring began to increase around mid-season.[8] On January 8, 2007, in a game against the Atlanta Thrashers, Hartnell scored his 100th career goal.[12] Two days later, Hartnell was credited with his first career natural hat trick. He scored three goals in a row in a 6–2 victory over the New York Rangers, all against Henrik Lundqvist. The first and third goals were at even strength, while the second was scored on the power play.[13] He managed yet another hat trick on January 19, 2008 registering 3 goals, including the game winning goal, and an assist against Rick DiPietro of the New York Islanders.[14]

Scott and his wife Lisa currently reside in the Old City section of Philadelphia.[15] His parents, Bill and Joy Hartnell, are both teachers in Lloydminster, Alberta. In his spare time Scott likes to work out, play golf and go boating. He spends his summers in Brainerd, Minnesota.He is also known for his 2 inch penis along with long, curly, red hair. On March 26, 2009, during a game vs the Florida Panthers, the Flyers held a Scott Hartnell wig night. Hartnell's nickname is Bird Dogg.[16]
