'He was going to pay before he realized it was a $500Gs comp,' Tkachuk said on the Spittin' Chiclets podcast. 'We're treated pretty well there. They do a good job, they're classy.'
Ex-NHLer and current analyst Paul Bissonnette added on the podcast that there was a lot of 'pent-up partying that was on display between E11EVEN, the parade, dunking in the ocean … It was an all spectacle that definitely rivals that 2019 Washington team.'
'Seeing Marchand holding the Cup crowd surfing at E11EVEN was out of control,' former NHLer Ryan Whitney added on the podcast.

Winnipeg Jets complete Day 2 of NHL Draft, re-sign Haydn Fleury
After the selection of 18-year-old defenceman Sascha Boumedienne with the 28th overall selection during Friday night's first round of the NHL Entry Draft in Los Angeles, the Winnipeg Jets kicked off Day Two on Saturday by signing pending unrestricted free agent blueliner Haydn Fleury to a two-year contract extension with an average annual value of $950,000US. The Fleury signing will leave the Jets with nine defencemen on one-way contracts, once an expected agreement has been reached with pending restricted free agent Dylan Samberg. Fleury played in 39 games for Winnipeg last season and had seven assists before adding two more helpers in the eight playoff games he appeared in. After that, the Jets got down to the business of 'stocking their cupboard' with future talent by selecting Spokane Cheifs Center Owen Martin of Oakbank, Swedish RW Viktor Klingsell, LSD Edison Engle of the USHL's Des Moines Buccaneers and Dubuque Fighting Saints, and RRW Jacob Cloutier of the OHL Saginaw Spirit in the third, fifth, sixth, and seventh rounds respectively. Story continues below advertisement Martin is just the third Manitoba born player, and first from the Winnipeg area to be drafted by the 2.0 version of the Jets since the NHL returned to the city in 2011. During a Zoom media availability, the 18-year-old, six-foot tall, 185-pound pivot told reporters the historic significance of the pick was appreciated. Goalie Jason Kasdorf of Portage la Prairie was a sixth round selection in the Jets 2.0 inaugural draft of 2011, while Brandon-born centre Jordan Stallard of the Calgary Hitmen was taken in the fifth round in 2016. 'I was on the phone with some one from the Jets and they told me that I am the first home town kid to be drafted by the Jets. I think that's just unbelievable. Super cool for me, my family — all my friends,' said Martin, who suffered a slight fracture and partially-torn tendons in his foot blocking a shot during a game in November, limiting him to 39 regular-season games for Spokane where he played for ex-Winnipeg assistant coach Brad Lauer.

'He expects a lot out of me headiing into next year, keep my development going overall, offensively and defensively.' Story continues below advertisement 4:25 John Shannon on the Jets: Looking to the offseason Jets director of amateur scouting Mark Hillier says it was a good overall draft for the organization, but left no doubt the highlight was getting Boumedienne at 28th overall. 'Our final meetings were in May but then we're meeting every week on Zoom after May,' Hillier told reporters via Zoom availability on Saturday afternoon, following the completion of the draft. 'I make it clear that everybody's got their individual list, but when we start the draft here it's the Winnipeg Jets list and we're not straying off it in the first round. 'We had probably three players that we were comfortable in taking that were left on the board and we had them rated higher. Boumidienne was at the top of that list and he was going to be our guy.' Hillier described Owen Martin as a 'an intriguing guy for us' with good size, a good skater, a good two-way game. And when it came to Viktor Klingsell, who was thought — at least by some — to go a lot higher than 156th overall in round five, Hillier responded by saying 'hopefully he's a steal.' Story continues below advertisement Hiller says the five-foot-11-inch, 188-pound winger is a player the Jets liked all year long. 'He's a well-known player, not the biggest. We met him at the combine — he has a real solid frame on him, he can really skate, has really good speed and played in all the international tournaments this year.' All five of the Jets 2025 draft picks are expected to attend the team's development camp, which will feature on-ice sessions Tuesday-Friday at the Hockey For All practice facility in Headingley. Seven Manitoba products selected in the draft Winnipeg Jets third-rounder Owen Martin was joined by a half dozen other Manitoba-born players who were taken over the seven rounds of the 2025 NHL entry draft. Everett Silver Tips forward Carter Bear of West St. Paul was drafted 13th overall by Detroit on night one. Pittsburgh traded up in the second round to select defenceman Peyton Kettles (Winnipeg) of the Swift Current Broncos 39th overall while Red Deer Rebels centre Matthew Gard (Winnipeg) was taken 18 picks later — 57th overall by Philadelphia. Another trade to move up the draft ladder saw Montreal make a swap with Boston in round three to take Kelowna Rockets centre Hayden Paupanekis (Winnipeg) 69th overall. Goalie Burke Hood (Brandon) of the Vancouver Giants and Brandon Wheat Kings RW Brady Turko (McCreary) went in the sixth (170th) and seventh (200th) rounds respectively to cap off a very successful day for the Keystone Province.

Wings rookie Paige Bueckers out with knee issue day after loss to Fever without Caitlin Clark
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Dallas Wings standout rookie Paige Bueckers has been ruled out of Saturday night's home game against Washington because of a right knee issue. Bueckers showed up on the team's game status report Saturday. There were no details about what the exact issue was a day after she scored 27 points and had six assists while playing nearly 36 1/2 minutes in the Wings' 94-86 loss to the Indiana Fever. It will be the fifth game missed by the No. 1 pick in this year's draft. Bueckers was sidelined three games while in the WNBA's concussion protocol and then sat out because of illness the first game she was eligible to return. In her 13 games played, Bueckers has averaged 18.4 points, 5.8 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 1.8 steals. Caitlin Clark, last year's WNBA Rookie of the Year, didn't play for the Fever on Friday night, missing her second consecutive game because of a left groin injury. That spoiled what was supposed to be the first meeting of the past two No. 1 picks in the draft, though the 20,000-seat American Airlines Center was still nearly full for the game. The Wings hosted Washington at College Park Center on the UT-Arlington campus, their home arena that has a capacity of 6,251. That is about 20 miles from the AAC in downtown Dallas. ___ AP WNBA:

2025 NHL Draft: How will the Canucks draft in rounds 2 to 7?
Whatever happens Friday night for the Vancouver Canucks in round one of the NHL Entry Draft, we know this much: They will make selections in the rest of the draft, which continues Saturday morning. This year's draft is an unusual affair, with teams making their picks remotely rather than in years past where they all assembled on a common draft 'floor,' usually an arena, although last year at The Sphere in Las Vegas and in its original 1960s and '70s form at the Queen Elizabeth Hotel in Montreal. Friday night's big show is at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles and league officials will run the remainder of the draft from there. Start your day with a roundup of B.C.-focused news and opinion.

Canucks GM Patrik Allvin and his chief scout Todd Harvey will call their picks in from the team's offices at Rogers Arena . As of Friday afternoon, the Canucks will pick 47th, 65th (originally San Jose's pick), 143rd, 175th and 207th. How the picks will play out is anyone's guess. A few round-by-round notes: 47th overall (round two) It's hard to believe a team in the Canucks' position has had so few second-round picks over the past decade, but here we are. They haven't picked in the second round since 2021, when Jim Benning rolled the dice on Danila Klimovich, passing up on the likes of Logan Stankoven. Klimovich had an impressive World U18s in front of Benning — that tournament was in Texas, and you'll recall Benning's return was how we learned he and some of his colleagues had somehow scored a national interest exemption from quarantining upon return — but has yet to play in the NHL. He's shown growth in the AHL, but remains a longshot to be an NHLer. Stankoven, on the other hand, has played NHL games in Dallas and was a key piece in the Mikko Rantanen trade. As a counter, the previous second-rounder was Nils Höglander, selected in 2019, who has proven to be a solid NHLer. 65th overall (round three) The last two third rounders are gone: Melvin Fernström was picked last summer then traded mid-season, and Hunter Brzustewicz was moved a year ago for Elias Lindholm . Both remain interesting prospects, with a good chance of playing NHL games. Elias 'Junior' Pettersson was picked in 2022 and has shown NHL promise already, so there's a good chance of finding an NHLer here. 143rd overall (round five) Beginning in the fourth round, the chances of finding an NHL player really start to dive. The last time the Canucks drafted a player after the fourth round who played NHL games was Adam Gaudette in 2015. Gaudette was actually the fourth time in five years the Canucks found NHL games in the fifth round, following Gustav Forsling — who obviously never played in Vancouver — Ben Hutton and Frankie Corrado. 175th overall (round six) The Canucks grabbed Arturs Šilovs in the sixth round in 2019 and he has played 19 regular season games in the NHL, while also being a star in the Calder Cup playoffs this spring, turning himself into a cult figure with his play last spring in the Stanley Cup playoffs and helping Latvia to an all-time best finish in the world championships in 2023. Otherwise, though, this is the land of Hugo Gabrielson, Connor Lockhart, Dmitry Zlodeyev and Jackson Dorrington. 207th overall (round seven) If things don't change, the Canucks' final pick will be 17th from the end. Kirill Kudryavtsev, selected in the seventh round in 2022, played two games this past season and could see more action next year. In general, though, guys in this round are flashes in the pan at best — remember Aidan McDonough's six games in 2023? Indeed McDonough's NHL appearances were the first games for the Canucks from one of their own seventh-round picks since Mario Bliznak — and he skated in just six games as well after being picked in the 2005 draft. pjohnston@
