Walker's role in Philadelphia, before being traded to Colorado, included more contribution offensively and a mostly regular role on the PP in addition to his ES and PK minutes.
In Colorado he's used in a 2-way role that includes matching up against middle six opponents and a primary role on the PK. His offense is secondary.
Best described as a 2-way 'D' who provides some depth offense. Generally quick in small areas. Average plus pace / agility in open ice. Stocky frame. Engaged physically. Doesn't back down from battles.
Averaged between 18-21 minutes TOI in regular season - 18:00 in playoffs with all of his TOI coming at ES and PK.
Useful veteran. Can slide into top four on occasion.
Expiring contract that earned him $2.65M in 23/24.
