Let go from tryout
Walker was released from his tryout with the Mammoth on Friday.
Impact
Walker will head to AHL Tucson's camp now. He is on a minor-league contract but could play his way into a two-way deal with a strong performance.

Pens PTO on Tuesday
Walker inked a professional tryout agreement with the Mammoth on Tuesday.
Impact
Walker has 13 regular-season games of NHL experience to his name, all coming with the Wild. The 26-year-old notched eight goals and 22 points over 31 regular-season appearances with AHL Tucson in 2024-25.

Acquired for considerations
Walker was traded to Utah from Minnesota for future considerations Monday.
Impact
Walker hasn't gotten into an NHL game this season, spending the entirety of the campaign in the minors with AHL Iowa. For the minor-league club, the 25-year-old center managed two goals and nine helpers across 30 contests. Even with the move to Utah, NHL minutes are unlikely to get any easier to come by for Walker.

Signs one-year deal
Walker agreed to terms on a one-year, two-way contract with Minnesota on Thursday.
Impact
Walker has just 13 games of NHL experience under his belt over the last two seasons, including four games during the 2023-24 campaign in which he recorded zero points, three shots and two hits. While the 25-year-old winger could get the occasional call-up this upcoming season, he will likely spend the bulk of the year in the minors with AHL Iowa.

Returned to minors
Walker was demoted to AHL Iowa on Friday.
Impact
Walker averaged 8:38 of ice time over the last two games in which he notched two shots, one block and a minus-1 rating. It seems the 24-year-old Minnesota didn't impress the team brass enough to keep him on the NHL roster, as the team opted to switch Walker out for Adam Raska, who was called up in a corresponding move.

Rises to top level
Walker was promoted from AHL Iowa on Tuesday.
Impact
Walker will likely draw into a bottom-six role for Tuesday's game versus Calgary if Marcus Foligno (undisclosed) is unable to go. Walker's gone scoreless through two top-level appearances this year.

Sent back to AHL
Walker was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Sunday.
Impact
Walker got into two games with Minnesota, averaging 10:05 TOI while logging two hits and a shot on goal. The 24-year-old winger will likely fill a depth role with the Wild throughout the campaign. Walker tallied 27 goals and 48 points in 56 AHL contests last season.

Dropped from camp
Walker was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Wednesday, per CapFriendly.
Impact
Walker was able to shake off a shoulder injury from the IIHF World Championship to participate in camp, but he fell short of making the roster. The 24-year-old winger had two points in his first nine NHL games last season, so he could be an in-season call-up when the Wild are dealing with injuries.

Walker (shoulder) will be ready for training camp after playing in the Tom Kurvers Prospects Showcase, Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News reports.
Impact

Impact
