• Kings' Sean Walker: Makes season debut

  1D ago •

  Walker (COVID-19 protocols) had two PIM with two hits and one block in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to Minnesota. Walker, who was minus-2, was in the lineup for the first time after missing training camp and the season opener. He logged just over 19 minutes of ice time -- fourth among Los Angeles defensemen -- and took a regular shift on both specialty teams units. Walker had 24 points in 70 games as a sophomore last season and his power-play role could make him useful to fantasy managers in a pinch.

  Walker (COVID-19 protocols) is one of three Kings expected to be in action Saturday after missing Thursday's game against Minnesota, Dennis Bernstein of TheFourthPeriod.com reports Walker's return would be welcome news to both Kings fans and fantasy owners, as he's a reliable option to produce from the blue line. If another owner dropped him over COVID concerns, he's worth grabbing, as it appears he'll be in the lineup for four games next week even if there is a setback that keeps him out Saturday.

In any event, Walker won't be available to practice or travel with the team until he's cleared. He was listed on the Kings' non-roster list Wednesday, so it's likely he'll be sitting out Thursday's game against the Wild.
