Can a healthy Jamie Drysdale be the Sean Walker replacement for Nick Seeler on the Flyers' back end?
In this edition of our 2023-24 Philadelphia Flyers player grading series, we take a look at 29-year-old defenseman Sean Walker. Walker was acquired by the Flyers during the 2023 offseason in a three-way trade with the Columbus Blue Jackets and Los Angeles Kings. The prize for the Blue Jackets was getting Ivan Provorov, while the Kings wanted to shed some salary and dumped Walker's $2.65 million contract in the process.
For much of this season, the Colorado Avalanche had six Stanley Cup-winning defensemen in its lineup. Samuel Girard (seven) and Jack Johnson (13) split one of the other two spots, while Erik Johnson held down the other.
