Walker Thrilled with Nighthawks Draft

[Advantage 2,891]

Tyler Walker released a press statement today regarding the S73 Draft, being drafted by Malmo and what he thinks about their draft:

 

"I am absolutely thrilled to start my VHL journey with the Malmo Nighthawks.  My agency has a deep connection with the city and the team, and I have enjoyed all of my visits.  

 

I had received word shortly before the draft that DC was going in another direction, so I had a pretty good idea that Malmo was going to take me.  I knew they had been targeting my services for a while, even going back to being drafted by Saskatoon.

 

Our draft was tremendous as well in my opinion.  We got my Wild goaltender in Gyrfalcon and my former teammate on San Diego in Frostbeard.  Any time you can make the argument that you acquired the best forward, defenseman and goaltender in the draft, you know you had an excellent draft.  We capped it off too by drafting Wakaro later on who will be a solid VHL defenseman in the future.

 

I am thrilled to join the team and I hope to have a really strong season."
