Walker scored a goal and an assist in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

The Blues' roster is wracked by injuries at the moment, with Brayden Schenn (upper body) leaving the game Sunday and joining David Perron (upper body), Jordan Kyrou (upper body), Robert Thomas (lower body) and others on the sidelines. As a result, players like Walker are getting an opportunity to shine. The 27-year-old has yet to get a real shot in the NHL after posting solid numbers over the last few seasons in the AHL, but he now has four goals and five points in three games since being promoted last week. Even once St. Louis gets healthier, it could be tough to dislodge Walker from a spot if he keeps producing.
