LOS ANGELES, Calif. - Alec Martinez became a hockey folk hero with his two playoff series-winning overtime goals last summer.The Los Angeles Kings want him around for six more seasons to make some new memories.The club agreed to a six-year, $24 million contract extension Wednesday with Martinez, the defenceman whose overtime goal won the Stanley Cup for the Kings in June.Martinez has been a dependable defenceman for the Kings ever since the Detroit-area native cracked their lineup in late 2010. The former fourth-round draft pick has 25 goals and 37 assists in 221 career NHL games, all with Los Angeles.Martinez scored a career-best 11 goals in the regular season last year, but it was just a prelude to two of the biggest goals in franchise history.Martinezs Game 7 overtime goal off Nick Leddys torso sent the Kings past the Chicago Blackhawks in the Western Conference finals, ending a grueling series between the two teams widely considered the NHLs best last year.Twelve days later, his shot into an open net in Game 5 against the New York Rangers handed the Kings their second Stanley Cup title in three years. Martinez added a personal touch to the moment by throwing off his gloves and wildly shaking his arms at his teammates, a gesture forever immortalized by Kings fans as Jazz Hands.Martinezs ice time and responsibilities have risen this season in the absence of departed free agent Willie Mitchell and suspended Slava Voynov. He returned from a seven-game injury absence Tuesday for the Kings 2-0 win over Boston.Martinez would have been a restricted free agent next summer, and he likely would have commanded a heftier salary given the paucity of veteran defencemen headed to market next year. But Martinez followed most of his teammates lead by valuing the Kings winning culture and outstanding lifestyle over free-agent uncertainties.The Kings also showed their commitment by signing another two-time Stanley Cup champion to a long-term deal. Los Angeles already has more than $60 million in salary commitments to 14 players for next season. Byron Maxwell Jersey .

After seven wins in a row, they have to do it one more time to get into the playoffs. IRVING, Texas -- Canadian Mike Weir hasnt had a top-25 finish since 2010. After the second round of the Byron Nelson Championship Friday, hes closer to breaking that drought. Weir, of Brights Grove, Ont., and fellow Canadian Graham DeLaet of Weyburn, Sask., are part of an eight-player group tied at 6-under 134, two strokes behind leader Brendon Todd, heading into Saturdays third round. "The work Ive been doing over the years is to get back into this position, and now Ive got to see if I can handle it and get momentum going and play well on the weekend," said the 44-year-old Weir. "Its been difficult to play and not be in contention." Also at 6 under after Friday were Martin Kaymer -- five days after winning The Players Championship -- Paul Casey, who finished near the top of the leaderboard after a record back nine, Morgan Hoffmann, who had had bogey-free 66s, Tim Herron (66), Charles Howell III (66) and Marc Leishman (68). Casey was over par Friday before matching the PGA Tour record for the best score on a back nine, an 8-under 27 with six birdies and an eagle. That was part of his 7-under 63 that was the low round of the day, though he could never remember such a good nine. "On par-3 courses, I think," Casey said. "I like to think I would be good at shooting low rounds of golf through the past, but certainly nothing like that." When Casey made the turn, he was coming off a three-putt at No. 9, his third bogey of the day. The 36-year-old Englishman, whose only PGA Tour victory was five years ago, was then 2 over for the tournament, even after making a 9-foot eagle putt on the par-5 seventh hole. "I think its easier when your back is up against the wall, like I was today" Casey said. "I was backed into a corner and had to do something. A little shift in, lets say, attitude, and a little shift in goals." Kaymer had his second consecutive 67, and has been in the 60s for all six of his rounds at TPC Four Seasons. The German won at TPC Sawgrass on Sunday. "If you had a good week, obviously you can take a lot into the next week. You play a little bit more free, a little bit more relaxed," Kaymer said. "Its a new week, and I want to do as good as possibble here.ddddddddddddquot; For the second time in five years, Todd is back on the PGA Tour after getting his card back through the Web.com Tour. He ended his round with back-to-back birdies to wrap up a round of 64 in which he needed only 22 putts. That included the 6-footer at the par-3 17th after his tee shot rolled just past the hole. "Its nice to put two under-par rounds together before the cut. Thats been a challenge for me this year," Todd said. "I was patient today." Todd, who started with six consecutiveF pars before four birdies in a five-hole stretch, first got to 7 under with a 12-foot birdie at the par-3 13th hole, but gave that stroke back at the par-4 15th when he hit his first two shots into the rough and had his only bogey. Peter Hanson was leading after a first-round 65, but was eight strokes worse Friday and dropped back to a tie for 25th at 2 under. David Duval, only a stroke off the lead after an opening 66 that included birdies on four of his last five holes, shot a 76 Friday and missed the cut by a stroke at 2-over 142. The former No. 1 player, now 890th in the world 15 years later, had six bogeys over his last 11 holes and had only one birdie during his second round. Casey made a 6 1/2-foot birdie putt at No. 10. His drive at the short par-4 11th was short of the greenside bunker, and from an awkward stance hit his approach over the pin onto the fringe before making a 24-foot birdie. He also had birdies at Nos. 13-15, a 32-foot putt for an eagle-3 at the 16th, and closed with another birdie. The overall nine-hole scoring record is Corey Pavins 8-under 26 on the front nine in the first round of the 2006 U.S. Bank Championship in Milwaukee in 2006. Seven others have had 27s on nine holes, the last Nick Watney in the third round of the 2011 AT&T National. Scottie Scheffler, a 17-year-old amateur from Dallas, shot a 68 with six birdies and four bogeys to make the cut at 1-under 139. Jordan Spieth, now 20 and the eighth-ranked player in the world, made the Nelson cut at ages 16 and 17 when he too was a top-ranked junior player from Dallas playing on a sponsor exemption. Spieth was 3 under after a 67 Friday. Defending Nelson champion Sang-Moon Bae missed the cut after rounds of 73 and 74.
