Blues' Nathan Walker: Snags helper in loss
Walker registered an assist in a 5-3 loss to the Golden Knights on Sunday.
Walker ended his eight-game pointless streak with his helper Sunday but is still stuck in a 21-game goal drought. During his goal slump, the winger managed just 20 shots. If he doesn't start shooting the puck more, Walker's goal drought is likely to continue.

Blues' Nathan Walker: Nets first goal of season
Walker scored a goal and added two PIM in Monday's 5-1 win over the Canucks.
Walker put the Blues ahead for good with a goal at 13:02 of the second period. It was his first tally of the season, and he's earned both of his points in his last six outings. The 28-year-old has been limited to fourth-line minutes when he's in the lineup, which is no guarantee -- and he could be on his way back to the press box soon if Logan Brown (upper body) pushes Walker for a spot in the lineup. In addition to his two points, Walker has 13 PIM, 27 hits, 17 blocked shots, 10 shots on net and a minus-1 rating in 19 appearances.

Blues' Nathan Walker: Finding minutes hard to come by
Walker is averaging just 9:50 of ice time this season, his lowest since joining the Blues ahead of the 2019-20 campaign.
In addition to seeing limited minutes, Walker has been a healthy scratch 13 times this season. Considering when he does crack the lineup he is barely on the ice, the 28-year-old winger figures to remain a low-end fantasy option throughout the 2022-23 campaign.

Blues' Nathan Walker: Undergoes wrist surgery
Walker underwent a small "tidy-up" surgery on his wrist recently, Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Walker's surgery is considered less significant than the one Alexei Toropchenko (shoulder) underwent recently. The 28-year-old Walker's status for training camp isn't likely to be in doubt, though he may initially be eased into on-ice activities if his recovery lags. Walker is expected to compete for a bottom-six role in 2022-23 after posting career highs in points (12) and games played (30) last season.

Blues' Nathan Walker: Two-point effort in OT loss
Walker scored a goal and an assist in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Ducks.
The Blues' roster is wracked by injuries at the moment, with Brayden Schenn (upper body) leaving the game Sunday and joining David Perron (upper body), Jordan Kyrou (upper body), Robert Thomas (lower body) and others on the sidelines. As a result, players like Walker are getting an opportunity to shine. The 27-year-old has yet to get a real shot in the NHL after posting solid numbers over the last few seasons in the AHL, but he now has four goals and five points in three games since being promoted last week. Even once St. Louis gets healthier, it could be tough to dislodge Walker from a spot if he keeps producing.

Blues' Nathan Walker: Hat trick in season debut
Walker scored three goals on five shots in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Red Wings.
What a season debut for Walker, who matched his career goal total from 25 previous NHL appearances. He potted the only two goals of the first period for either team, then completed the hat trick to give the Blues a 4-1 lead 9:27 into the final frame. It's fair to be skeptical about whether this performance will lead to further success for the 27-year-old winger, who skated just 12:56 in the contest, but Walker had 17 points in 19 games before being called up and could be worth taking a flier on if you have a roster spot available.

Walker has struggled to break into the NHL with any sort of consistency, having logged just 25 games over the last four years for Edmonton, Washington and St. Louis.
