Caps Get A Walker For Basically Nothing
The Caps made what most people feel is the first of two or more trades today sending a 7th round pick in the 2010 draft to Carolina for forward Scott Walker.
From TSN:
In 32 games this season, the 36-year-old Walker has three goals and two assists with a minus- 5 rating. Since joining the Hurricanes via a July 2006 trade with Nashville, the Cambridge, Ont., native has scored 43...

Scott Walker Labels Aaron Ward With A Cheap Shot

Back in 1995 when Rangers goon Tie Domi sucker punched the gutless puke Ulf Samuelsson and he got 8 games. In my opinion Scott Walker broke the code by punching a guy that wasn't ready...

The Caps Make Trades for Multiple Guys
It’s NHL trade deadline day, and Washington has sent a seventh-round pick to Carolina for 36-year-old Scott Walker.
He appears to be sufficiently gritty, and his contract expires in July, so I imagine he’s supposed to help the team in the playoffs or something.
More to come?
