San Jose Sharks legend Patrick Marleau used to play with Evander Kane while Kane was in San Jose and some concerning accusations from Marleau's wife, Christina Marleau, have emerged. Mrs. Marleau recounts a story of Kane taking a substance with a teammate and the fallout being scary.
With Kane behaving this way around younger players, it is obvious that there is a lot to be desired with his off-ice behavior. Mrs. Marleau paints a clear picture that Sharks management was disappointed in how Kane carried himself around younger players.
It is not uncommon for veterans to have younger players look after their kids. John Tavares recently had rookies Matthew Knies and Fraser Minten watch after his kids while the two were staying with Tavares.
However, Kane utilized an at the time 20-year-old Ryan Merkley as a babysitter. Given Mrs. Marleau's tone, it seems like this was more of something Kane did without the consultation of his now ex-wife.
This is also babysitting for the night which implies Kane was out doing something else when he was supposed to be watching his son.
Only time will tell what happens as a result of these hearings but one thing that Kane is facing is losing any relationship with his child.
