KC Armstrong Hockey Night in Canada
Just in time for the All Star break we bring you a series of images that KC shot last fall for Hockey Night in Canada. KC had the unique privilege of shooting 16 of the top names in hockey and while it made for a long day, it was also a very rewarding one. However there were some production challenges along the way such as a last minute need to black out all the bounce coming from KC’s strobe lights…. seems a neighboring TSN shoot happening at the other end of the rink was picking them up! While that was an easy fix a bigger challenge was presented in trying to communicate direction to some of the Russian players. Pavel Datsuyk, who was by far one of the most impressive players KC worked with that day, said in broken English, "Don't be afraid to tell me more". Both he and Steven Stamkos blew KC away with the intensity and speed of their skating. At one point Datsuyk raced towards KC and brushed by his shoulder at top speed, never missing a beat!!
