It's been quite the year for Kamloops' Joe Hicketts of the Grand Rapids Griffins in the American Hockey League.
In addition to assisting on 24 goals and collecting 27 points this season, Hicketts can add male model to his resume as the 5'8" defenceman is in the running for AHL Photo of the Year.
The photo in question came when Hicketts scored the game-tying goal with 1:17 seconds left against the Milwaukee Admirals. Hicketts is seen giving the crowd a fist bump and a toothless smile as he skates past his team's bench.
The Griffins would go on to win that contest by a score of 5-4 in the shootout.
