Your Strathmore Motor Products King of the Week is forward Cole Walker. 

This is Walker's third year on the Kings and in that time he was playing defense but this year he is trying his hand at being a forward. 

"This is my overage year on the Kings. I have been playing hockey since I was about 7 or 8, so it is a passion of mine."

When Walker isn't playing on the Kings, he attends the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT) obtaining his heavy-duty mechanic diploma. 

"I am currently employed in Calgary, so I'm working on construction equipment, but my mom is originally from Australia and last year we took a trip there and an idea popped into my head that maybe I can explore work over there."

Hockey however has been a part of Walker's life and as he looks to his future he isn't willing to just close that book.

"I'll always find ice time around somewhere, so it's it'll never leave me." 

The Kings will take on the High River Flyers in High River on Friday (Jan 12) and the Okotoks Bisons for a second time this year on Saturday (Jan 13) at home, both games start at 8:00 p.m.
