Current Event-Patrick Kane

This past summer the NHL had to deal with a star NHL player that got in a lot of trouble. The NHL banned Patrick Kane from going on the annual preseason media tour which is the top 40 NHL stars which Kane is one of them, but he couldn't go on the tour due to his actions that he did in the summer. Kane was also lost a major endorsement with a popular video game and the manufactures changed there plans to put Kane's picture to appear on the game box. The NHL was in a tough position and had to decide if Patrick Kane was allowed to play this season for the Chicago Blackhawks.


Patrick Kane found himself under investigation in the summer for what he did to a girl when he invited her into his home. Kane had to get an attorney and this attorney represented Kane in two investigations, both involving conduct that was alleged to have occurred after Kane went to Buffalo bars in late hours. Following a three month investigation Sedita dropped the charges against Patrick Kane. The Hamburg police supported and agreed with the DA's decision, Hamburg Police Capt. Christopher Monaco said. Cambria said that bothered Kane the most was the pain that the rape investigation caused his family. Cambria said that Kane realizes that he made poor judgement by inviting a women in his home he had just met to his house in the early hours of the morning. Cambria says, "I know he's going to learn from this. I know that he is going to make some changes." The NHL has warned young players to be careful about their conduct in bars, and about the damage they can do to their images and careers by their conduct with women. Kane is really close with his two sisters and parents and will never do anything like this again. Kane's attorney said that Kane has learned his lessons from the rape investigation.
