A former draft pick for the Winnipeg Jets has been ordered to pay more than $34,000 to a 19-year-old 'Good Samaritan' who spoke up for a young woman who was allegedly arguing with the athlete. Winnipeg Jets' Ryan Olsen takes a hit from Calgary Flames' Emile Poirier during a prospect exhibition game in 2015. Griffin knew Olsen's younger siblings but had never met or spoken to Ryan Olsen," Gove writes. "He knew him by reputation as they both lived in the community of Tsawwassen where Olsen was known as an accomplished hockey player who had been drafted by the Winnipeg Jets Hockey Team and was living in Winnipeg." Despite the 2012 draft by the Winnipeg Jets, Olsen has never played a regular season game in the National Hockey League.
