unclevlad Posted August 1, 2021 Report Share Posted August 1, 2021 Oh my.... The NHL is going to investigate veteran Evander Kane for betting on his own team's games. And throwing them. The accusations' source? His wife. From AP: Quote In a separate post, Anna Kane accused her husband of spending lavishly partying in Europe while asking her to sell her wedding ring to survive and wrote about not being able to afford baby formula for their child. So it's one very, very angry woman. The story also notes: Quote Kane’s gambling history and finances have been public knowledge for some time. A Las Vegas Strip casino sued Kane in 2019, alleging he failed to repay a $500,000 gambling debt racked up during a playoff series against the Golden Knights. So ohhh boy do her allegations seem well-founded. Ouch. This would be the worst gambling violation since Tim Donaghy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclevlad Posted August 2, 2021 Report Share Posted August 2, 2021 There is a difference between "rich" and "more money than the entire state budget of Texas." By a LOT. "Ultra high net worth" is defined as $30M in assets, less liabilities, not counting certain things. It gets a little complicated. That seems a plausible notion of "rich" these days. The Gates fortune was 4000x this...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclevlad Posted August 3, 2021 Report Share Posted August 3, 2021 Effective if likely unintentional pun, to be sure. A quick glance at Florida battery law...it looks like it's misdemeanor charges, but I wouldn't be surprised if prosecutors try to elevate. But there will likely be other moves...he won't be flying Frontier any time soon, for example. EDIT: Cygnia, they're on paid leave while the incident is investigated. This is pretty much standard. I don't expect they'll be disciplined; certainly they shouldn't be, from what the stories describe. Duct-taping his mouth shut *might* be considered excessive, but if the moron was being as disruptive (even bound) as described, I think it's a prudent move. Forcibly restraining him was completely justified; his actions endanger the flight. assault 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
