Logan Stankoven is selling brand-new hockey sticks on Facebook Marketplace, and the joke misses what the listing actually tells you.

The Kamloops native just won the 2026 Stanley Cup with the Carolina Hurricanes and starts an eight-year, $48 million contract this fall.
So a $175 Warrior stick listing looks absurd and even garnered some criticism.
The listing shows Warrior QR7 and Alpha LX3 pro stock models, 70 flex, W03 curve.
Those are manufacturer surplus, not game-used relics.
The Facebook account behind it dates to 2019 and matches his real specs down to the flex and curve.
A Kamloops user simply stumbled onto the listing while scrolling.

Why a millionaire has sticks to sell

NHL players receive far more sticks than they can ever use, often north of a hundred a season through equipment deals.
Most of that inventory sits in garages doing nothing.
Fans have bought sticks straight from players in arena lots and private sales for years, well before Marketplace existed.
The channel is old; only the screenshot is new.
Offloading the overflow locally is routine, especially for prairie and B.C. players home for the summer.
A hometown seller quietly listing surplus is the least surprising part of this.

The $175 price is the real tell

Dedicated pro stock sites regularly move these same sticks past $200.
Stankoven priced his below that, which reads less like a cash grab and more like a summer clear-out.
For collectors, a sitting champion's verified sticks could climb well past that later.
At $175 today, someone local likely got a bargain with a paper trail.
The funny screenshot is real, but the resale economy behind it has existed for years.
This listing is a window into it, not an outlier.
