Walker scored two goals, including a shorthanded game-winner, on five shots in Sunday's 7-0 win over the Jets.
The veteran defenseman opened the scoring with a shortie in the first period before adding his second tally midway through the second, recording his first two-goal game in three seasons with Carolina. Although Walker's offensive production is typically limited, this performance highlights his ability to contribute occasional scoring bursts. Don't expect consistency in the scoring column, though -- he has cracked the scoresheet in just five of his 16 appearances so far this season.

Walker tallied a goal, posted a plus-2 rating, placed three shots on net and recorded three blocked shots in Saturday's 4-0 win over St. Louis.
Walker was heavily involved in the winning effort, as he opened the scoring midway through the second period with his first first goal of the 2026-27 season. Without the puck, he played a strong game defensively to help Carolina secure its first shutout of the season. The 31-year-old blueliner is up to seven points, 12 PIM, 24 shots on net, a plus-4 rating, 14 hits and 25 blocked shots across 13 appearances this season. His well-rounded play style and usage from a top-four role make Walker a viable fantasy option in leagues that value category coverage. He's also on pace to top his career high of 31 points, established in the previous regular season.

Walker piled up four assists, one on the power play and one shorthanded, in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Canucks.
The veteran defenseman had helpers in every period, including on a K'Andre Miller tally just 78 seconds into the first period that got the rout rolling. Walker had been held without a point in the first four games of the season, but he's been contributing in other ways and has nine blocked shots, eight shots on net, six hits, six PIM and a minus-2 rating to begin the campaign.

Walker notched an assist and four hits in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals.
Walker has been more of a defensive presence throughout the playoffs. This was his first point since Game 2 of the second round versus the Flyers. Walker has a total of three assists with 27 shots on net, 66 hits, 29 blocked shots, 16 PIM and a plus-9 rating over 18 postseason appearances in a top-four role.

Walker (undisclosed) will return to the lineup for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup playoffs, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports Thursday.
Walker was one of many Carolina players who got the night off Tuesday to rest for the Stanley Cup playoffs. Walker had nine goals, 22 assists, 179 shots on goal, 141 hits and 125 blocked shots over 81 regular-season games this season.

Walker (undsiclosed) will not play in Tuesday's road clash against the Islanders.
Walker was ruled out close to game time, indicating that he, along with many of Carolina's regular starters, will rest before the postseason. The 31-year-old blueliner was hot prior to Tuesday's game with a six-game point streak. Overall, he has nine goals, 31 points, 179 shots on net, 141 hits and 125 blocked shots across 81 games this season. He'll miss his first game of the campaign Tuesday and just his third regular-season game over the last three years. Walker will likely return to one of Carolina's top defensive pairs ahead of their first-round matchup in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
