Helper in team debut Walman recorded an assist, three shots on goal, two hits, three blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Stars.

Impact Walman's Oilers debut came alongside Darnell Nurse, giving the team a strong all-around pairing. With three helpers over his last two games, Walman comes to Edmonton with a little momentum. The 29-year-old has had a career year with 33 points, 128 shots on net, 114 blocked shots, 50 hits, 36 PIM and a plus-2 rating over over 51 appearances. His numbers were strong considering he was playing for the Sharks, and while power-play time won't be plentiful in Edmonton, Walman may still be able to put up decent offense.

Heading north in trade Walman was traded to the Oilers from the Sharks on Thursday in exchange for Carl Berglund and a conditional 2026 first-round pick.

Impact The pick is top-12 protected, and would transfer to 2027 in the unlikely event the Oilers get such a high pick in 2026. Walman bolsters the left side of the Edmonton defense, and he could pair with Evan Bouchard or former Sharks teammate Ty Emberson. Walman has contributed a career-high 32 points over 50 appearances this season as the leader on San Jose's blue line, but his move to a contender will likely lower his ice time and his scoring output, so fantasy managers may want to have a backup plan in place for their defense corps.

Being held out Thursday Walman is being held out of the lineup versus the Avalanche on Thursday for trade-related reasons, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.

Impact Walman is expected to be dealt to the Oilers, but both the Sharks and Oilers are playing Thursday. Additionally, Edmonton's having an injury crisis on defense, so the deal is not expected to be completed immediately -- though it could happen after the games Thursday or at some point Friday. Walman has a career-high 32 points over 50 appearances this season, but his role is likely to shrink dramatically with the Oilers.

Career season continues Walman had two assists in a 6-2 win over Buffalo on Tuesday.

Impact His breakout season continues. Walman has 32 points, including 26 helpers, and 125 shots in 50 games this season. His average ice time is up significantly -- more than three minutes a night -- from last season in Detroit (23:11 vs. 19:46). And his minus-1 rating is impressive on a team with a minus-68 goal differential on the season. Walman's career season feels like lightning in a bottle, but at the same time, we can't deny his value right now.

The 29-year-old is up to 30 points for the first time in his career, doing so in a mere 45 appearances. He's added 114 shots on net, 91 blocked shots, 44 hits and a minus-1 rating while skating in a top-four role.
