Unbelievable: A key member of the Edomonton who had an affair with a teammate’s wife has been…
San Jose Sharks forward Evander Kane’s wife claimed on social media that he bets on his own games, prompting the NHL to launch an investigation.
‘How does the NHL let a compulsive gambling addict still play when he’s blatantly throwing games to make money?’ demanded his estranged wife, Anna Kane.
In a subsequent Instagram post, Anna accused model Mara Teigen of being her husband’s mistress, writing, “So do you feel good about yourself f*****g my husband when I’m at home pregnant?”
Additionally, she stated that while Evander was reportedly having parties in Europe, she was compelled to sell her wedding band in order to pay for baby formula.
Early on Sunday, Evander posted a message on social media in which he flatly refuted Anna’s allegations.
He said that Anna had made up the betting claims to ruin his reputation.
The fourth season of Evander’s seven-year, $49 million contract is about to begin.
An ex-girlfriend of Evander’s filed a $6 million lawsuit against him in 2018, claiming he coerced her into terminating two pregnancies and broke agreements to cover the costs.
In 2016, a Buffalo woman, then 21 years old, filed a lawsuit against the then-Sabres forward, claiming he had gravely hurt her in the hotel room where he resided. On June 24, 2016, Evander entered a not guilty plea to charges of non-criminal harassment, disorderly conduct, and trespass, which were linked to an unrelated incident at a bar.
Forward Evander Kane of the San Jose Sharks called his estranged pregnant wife “mentally ill” and accused her of “trying to destroy my career” by betting on his team’s professional hockey games to support his gambling addiction, cheating on him with a Los Angeles model, and not buying baby food for their newborn daughter.
In a statement issued early on Sunday morning following the National Hockey League’s announcement that it would be opening an investigation, the Vancouver, British Columbia native said, “I have never gambled/bet on hockey, never gambled/bet on a Sharks game, never gambled/bet on any of my games, and never thrown a hockey game.”
“The truth is, I’m proud of the fact that last year was the most consistent season I’ve had in my career and that it was also my best season personally.”
I adore hockey, and I would never do something that was reported.
“I’m excited for this upcoming season, having my name clear, and fully cooperating with the league’s investigation.”
The second child of the pair, Anna Kane, made the accusation on Saturday that her husband was a compulsive gambler who ruined his own team’s games in order to pay off a substantial gambling debt.
In a flurry of divisive Instagram posts, Anna claimed her husband had purposefully thrown hockey games, leaving the family penniless and unable to afford formula for their young daughter.
Anna also made fun of Mara Teigen, the 26-year-old model, who has been compared to Angelina Jolie and is said to be her husband’s “mistress.”
