The ECHL Department of Player Safety on Saturday announced that Adirondack’s Zach Walker has been suspended for one game and fined an undisclosed amount as a result of his actions in ECHL Playoff Game #M-1, Florida at Adirondack, on May 17.

Walker is fined and suspended under Rule #28 Supplementary Discipline as the result of an unpenalized slew-foot infraction at 2:16 of the second period.
