This season, ASU hockey has given at least 15 starts to six freshmen, one of which is standout winger Johnny Walker.
The hometown kid already appears to have surpassed the learning curve that comes to most freshmen playing college hockey. He is tied for the team lead with seven goals, and leads the team in shots with 79.
The impressive totals come even after recording a meager two points in his first nine games as a Sun Devil.
Ever since missing the first game of the Penn State series as a healthy scratch, the young winger has 10 points in his last 13 games.
