Evander Kane Steps Away from His Association
Over the past few years, Evander Kane's career and personal life have undergone significant changes. After spending many years with the San Jose Sharks, Kane's personal life has been a roller coaster, with financial issues and troubles in his relationship.
Despite the challenges he faced, Kane found solace in being one of the founding members of the Hockey Diversity Alliance (HDA). The HDA is an organization dedicated to eradicating racism within the sport of hockey. It is a noble cause that deserves applause for its formation.
However, in a recent letter, Kane announced his decision to step away from the HDA, citing his belief that the organization has taken a negative turn and expressing his desire not to be associated with it anymore.
Kane's statement prompted a response from the HDA, shedding light on additional factors contributing to his departure. They explained that his bankruptcy filing automatically disqualified him from assuming the role of HDA president. The alliance also noted that Kane had not actively participated in HDA activities for the past two years.
It remains uncertain whether Kane will return to contribute to the growth of the HDA in the future or if he will remain on the sidelines or potentially start his agency.
