Nathan Walker Out 4-6 Weeks with Broken Hand

The Hershey Bears announced today that forward Nathan Walker will miss four to six weeks after sustaining a broken hand on Saturday.

During the Bears game against the Springfield Thunderbirds, Walker blocked a shot, causing him to break his hand. Walker had missed only two games this season, both healthy scratches in the first month of the season.

Hershey is back on the ice tomorrow for practice after having the All-Star break off. They travel to Binghamton on Friday to begin a three-in-three weekend before returning to Giant Center for a back-to-back against the St. John’s IceCaps.
