Recently promoted right wing Geoff Walker is the Kings’ “Prospect of the week” on the team’s official Web site.
It’s easy now to forget how Walker came into the Kings’ organization: He was claimed by the Reign off waivers by the now-defunct Phoenix Roadrunners late in the 2008 preseason, finished the season tied for the team scoring lead, improved his conditioning in the off-season and earned an AHL contract with the Manchester Monarchs. Walker had an assist last night in a Monarchs win.
