Wife says he bet on San Jose games, his team. This is a huge story if this is true.

NEW YORK -- The National Hockey League today released the following statement:

"The League was made aware this evening of a post on social media alleging that San Jose Sharks Player Evander Kane bet on NHL games. The integrity of our game is paramount and the League takes these allegations very seriously. We intend to conduct a full investigation and will have no further comment at this time."

Not surprising after everything came out about his gambling debts. Probably happens a lot more than we think. At least he was betting on himself. The way I first heard the story was that he was " throwing " games which to me implies he was betting against himself. Not sure how much 1 player in a team sport like hockey can have as an impact on the game. Now if it was a goalie that I could see. Interesting story either way I'm guessing he's headed for a divorce lol.

Easy, cause some penalties and put your team in the box

Now that I think about it you can turn the puck over. Don't bother back checking there's lots of ways to hurt your own team.

There are allegations that he might have thrown games and as discussed this is fairly easy to do by turning over puck. Not a guarantee your opponent will win but it is a significant edge. If you wager against the Sharks each time you should end up a couple of units ahead.

Should have no bearing on Legalized Sports Betting.

He could have done it offshore or Vegas if he wanted to.

But we all know what the critics will say.

Didn't think of that lol. Good point.
should have crossed your mind that you might not want to lead your team in points, goals, assists, shots, and game winning goals if you're supposedly tossing games for gambling.

prediction time....

IF Kane is guilty he will

1) claim gambling and/or alcohol and pills addiction, and if that doesn't work
2) cite mental health on the fritz, and if that doesn't work
3) lay down the royal flush = Race Card

yep Divorce revenge

Women can be the most vengeful creatures on the planet. I wonder how many millions and millions of dollars he has put in her purse. And she backstabs him like that, wow.
