Hall Of Famer Larry Walker Will Be Avalanche Emergency Goalie For Sunday’s Game

There could be a baseball Hall of Famer between the pipes when the Colorado Avalanche plays on Sunday … ’cause none other than Larry Walker will be the official emergency goalie!!!

Of course, the chances are slim the 53-year-old ex-MLB slugger will see any PT … but it’s not impossible. Walker would just have to beat out the other 2 goalies on the roster.

Remember, just 2 weeks ago, 42-year-old David Ayres — the Carolina Hurricanes Zamboni driver — had his name called after the team’s 2 goalies got injured … and the dude helped secure the win!!!

As for Walker, the guy ended up playing a sport with a different kinda stick and was damn good at it — he won the National League MVP in 1997, 7 Gold Gloves and 3 Silver Sluggers.

But, baseball wasn’t the only first love for the Canadian … he grew up playing street hockey and had dreams of being an NHL goalie.
