Sharks' Evander Kane files for bankruptcy, totally $26.8 million worth of debt, per reportsThe filing also mentions he could sit out this season By Shanna McCarriston According to Daniel Kaplan of The Athletic, San Jose Sharks forward Evander Kane has filed for bankruptcy, totaling $26.8 million of debt. He reportedly filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in California. The filing includes $10.2 million in assets, including three homes. Kaplan noted that Kane's monthly income is minus-$91,131.13 and the 29-year-old lost $1.5 million gambling over the last month. He also notes that seven dependents live with Kane. Recently, Centennial Bank filed an $8.3 million lawsuit in Florida federal court against Kane and the Sharks over pending debt. According to the filing, there is a chance Kane does not play in the upcoming NHL season. He has been spotted at camp and has not made any public comments about possibly sitting out this season. The team has also not made comments about him potentially missing the 2020-21 season. The bankruptcy petition said, "Debtor may terminate his contract and he may opt out of the season, as allowed under current rules, because of health concerns given the recent birth of his first child. Should he terminate his contract or opt out at a point in the season, Debtor will not receive his salary." In 2018, Kane signed a seven-year, $49 million extension with San Jose. According to capfriendly, he has earned $52.9 million in salary in his 11 years in the league. Kane has played with the Winnipeg Jets and Buffalo Sabres as well as the Sharks. www.cbssports.com/nhl/news/sharks-evander-kane-files-for-bankruptcy-totally-26-8-million-worth-of-debt-per-reports/

Just not surprising is it. But 27 million in debt plus 53 mil. in income = 80 mil. blown in 11 years. That's quite the feat in some kind of a perverse way. I'm glad they threw him off the Jets bus when they did.

I am shocked and appalled at this totally unexpected turn of events. He has always been so careful and responsible.

Poor Evander thought he plays in the NBA. So many stories of their players going broke.

yah this is sad really but I make no comment on his judgement because every time someone questions his character or decisions he says that is because the the person is a racist - that is the really sad part.
