Evander Kane is no stranger to drama; he has been kicked off the San Jose Sharks, and been engaged in on, and off-ice controversies many times.

Now a member of the Edmonton Oilers, who are trying to win a Stanley Cup with Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, it appears Evander Kane is at the end of his rope, and that the drama is just too much:

As has been the case all of Kane's career, too much drama, boys. Too much drama around Evander Kane. Useless drama. I'll do what every player on every other team does. Yeah, maintenance day, I'm gonna try hard tomorrow. This is needless drama that you don't need starting playoffs, that you don't want in your dressing room. The guys we talk to about Evander Kane running his course - He doesn't run his course as a player, he runs his course as a bringer of drama.

- Mark Spector



These attitude issues line up with major health issues for Kane, who has been suffering from a sports hernia for the entire 2023-24 season.

Kane says he's dealing with a sports hernia and has been all season. He's hopeful to play but has needed to take some time off the ice late in the season to let it heal. Full participant today in practice.
