Being a professional photographer for the NHL seems like it would be a pretty great job. You get to take in a professional hockey game, while in prime seats up close to the action, and getting paid while doing it.
Blues forward Nathan Walker was taking shots at warm-ups. One of his shots hit the crossbar and sailed over the glass making contact with Knight. Unfortunately, the photography assistant needed some stitches.
The 30 year old, Walker has found himself bounced between the NHL and AHL with the St. Louis Blues roster since signing with the Blues in 2019. Last season he played a career high 56 games scoring 10 points. Walker has been scoring more this season, in 19 games he has scored 5 goals and 7 points. His play earned himself a contract extension in January, a two-year contract, worth $775k per season.
