Walman agreed to terms on a three-year, entry-level contract with the Blues on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Walman recently completed his junior season at Providence College where he was named a Hockey East First-Team All-Star for the second consecutive season. The 6-foot, 193-pound defenseman has shown both offensive and defensive prowess from the blue line, notching seven goals, 18 assists, and a plus-11 rating in 39 games for the Friars this season. He will immediately report to AHL Chicago and will be a fascinating prospect to watch going forward.
