For Evander Kane, it appears to be one step forward and two steps back in terms of his personal history. Over the past several months, stories from his former partner have come to light, especially in connection with his bankruptcy case. Now, it seems that Patrick Marleau's wife, Christina, has shared a story that was tweeted on the X platform.
In a nutshell, it seems that Kane invited a younger San Jose player, along with the player's girlfriend, to their home during the COVID-19 pause. It was explained that a substance was consumed, which led to the teammate running out the door and being missing for several hours.
Sharks management attempted to address Kane's behaviour to see if it could be curbed or stopped, but no action was taken.
The second part of the story involves a 20-year-old San Jose player, Ryan Merkley, who was used as a babysitter on multiple occasions for Kane and his girlfriend's child, as the couple would go out for the night.
Over the past several months, Kane has been spotted in the Edmonton area participating in charitable events and spending time with children. He has even befriended a 10-year-old girl named Cecily Eklund, taking her to sporting events and attending her birthday party. Despite his troubles in California, it seems that he is making a concerted effort to become a better person.
