Evander Kane's ex-wife accused him of gambling
Back when Evander Kane played for the San Jose Sharks, he was accused by his ex-wife, Anna Kane, of gambling on hockey games and throwing games to win money. These were serious allegations that could have damaged Kane's reputation as a player. However, Evander Kane denied the allegations on Twitter and expressed his eagerness to cooperate fully with the league's investigation to clear his name.
The NHL takes allegations of gambling and game-fixing seriously and has strict rules in place to ensure the integrity of the game. The league opened an investigation into the allegations against Kane but was unable to substantiate Anna's claims.

It is also crucial to remember that Kane is innocent until proven guilty, and any findings must be based on concrete evidence.
