Walker signed a five-year, $18 million contract with the Hurricanes on Monday.
Scouting Report
Undrafted, the somewhat undersized defenseman came through the college hockey ranks and battled his way into a regular role in the NHL with a combination of offense and feistiness. Loves to get involved in the attack, sometimes to the point of taking too many risks. Injuries have been a problem for him.
Long Range Potential: Pretty good puck-moving defenseman (when healthy).
