From a league point of view, they should only be involved if he was betting on hockey (or other stuff outlined by the CBA). If it's only debt from casino gambling, this is between the casino and Kane, nobody else.
Your first sentence is not a relevant comparison. The public is not betting on my employers business outcomes.

If (big if) Kane is involved in any type of high stakes gambling, the potential exists that people threaten him to manipulate outcomes in NHL games. This, of course, is a massive problem for the NHL even if the player himself is not betting on hockey.

If a guy is 500k in the hole, there is a chance there are people coming after him so the NHL should probably ask some questions.
