Walker logged an assist, three shots on goal and nine hits in Sunday's 4-3 double-overtime loss to the Jets in Game 7.
EDGE Analysis
Walker set up Radek Faksa's late goal in the second period, which put the Blues up 3-1. The 31-year-old Walker had four points over seven postseason contests, all of them coming in Game 5 or later in the first-round series. That burst of offense is not the norm -- he had a career-high 16 points in 73 appearances in the regular season as a fourth-liner, which is likely the role he'll fill again in 2025-26.

Walker scored a goal on three shots, dished out three hits, added two PIM and went plus-3 in Friday's 5-2 win over the Jets in Game 6.
EDGE Analysis
Walker has scored three times over the last two games. The 31-year-old is still in a fourth-line role, but his line with Alexei Toropchenko and Radek Faksa is providing valuable depth scoring late in the first round. In addition to his three goals, Walker has eight shots on net, 31 hits, 22 PIM and a plus-4 rating over six playoff outings.

Walker scored two goals, doled out seven hits, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Jets in Game 5.
EDGE Analysis
Walker snapped a 15-game goal drought with his tally at 3:42 of the first period to tie the score at 1-1. He lit the lamp again late in the third, but it was too late to spark a comeback effort. Walker had a career year in 2024-25 with eight goals, 16 points, 281 hits, 72 shots on net and 63 PIM over 73 regular-season outings as a steady physical presence on the fourth line. In addition to his two goals, he has 20 PIM, a plus-1 rating, five shots on net, 28 hits and 10 blocked shots over five playoff outings.

Walker logged an assist and went minus-2 in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Walker has two helpers over six outings in April. The 31-year-old forward continues to log steady ice time in a bottom-six role. He has hit like a truck this year, racking up 279 hits in 72 appearances, good for seventh in the league. Walker has added a career-high 16 points, 71 shots on net, 57 blocked shots and 61 PIM.

Walker logged an assist and five hits in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Walker has four points over his last 10 contests, which isn't bad considering his bottom-six role. The 31-year-old forward has a career year of 15 points in 68 appearances to his name in 2024-25. He's added 66 shots on net, 263 hits, 59 PIM and 51 blocked shots. Walker can help in banger leagues, but his general fantasy value is fairly limited.

Walker produced a goal and an assist in Saturday's 4-1 win over Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
It's the first multi-point performance of the season for Walker, and he's tied his career high with eight tallies while setting a new personal best with 14 points through 62 appearances. The 31-year-old's main fantasy value comes from his physical play, and he's up to 233 hits on the campaign, good for eighth in the NHL.

Walker notched an assist, eight hits and two PIM in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Walker's eight hits matched a season high, and he snapped a five-game point drought with the helper. This was his first assist since Dec. 31 -- he had scored just three goals over his previous 25 outings. The 31-year-old forward is one point shy of his career high with 12 points over 59 contests in 2024-25. He's added 55 shots on net, 40 PIM and 217 hits while most often filling a fourth-line role. Walker doesn't score much, but he's played well enough to keep Alexandre Texier out of the lineup.

Walker scored a goal on three shots and added four hits in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
The Blues' fourth line was able to make a contribution in the form of Walker's second-period tally. It snapped a five-game point drought for the 31-year-old forward, who has just three goals over 20 appearances since the start of January. For the season, he's at seven goals, 11 points, 48 shots on net, 189 hits, 36 PIM and a minus-4 rating over 53 appearances. He's right in line with his production levels from other campaigns, and given his limited role, it's unlikely he'll get much past the 15-point mark this year.

Walker scored a goal and added seven hits in Saturday's 6-5 shootout win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Walker's offense has been pretty limited this year -- he snapped a five-game point drought Saturday and has just two goals over 14 appearances since the start of January. The 31-year-old forward has been an occasional scratch and rarely plays above the fourth line. He's produced 10 points, 42 shots on net, 168 hits, 29 blocked shots, 29 PIM and a minus-3 rating over 47 appearances. He should be able to finish with a career high in points -- he needs to surpass the 13 he put up over 45 outings in 2023-24.

Walker scored a goal on three shots, added three hits and blocked two shots in Monday's 5-4 shootout win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Walker ended a seven-game point drought with his first-period tally Monday. The 30-year-old forward has held a pretty steady role on the Blues' fourth line, but he was scratched last Tuesday versus the Flames. Walker is at nine points, 38 shots on net, 145 hits, 29 PIM and 26 blocked shots through 41 appearances, a bit behind the pace that saw him put up 13 points in 45 appearances in 2023-24.
