Kane had a self-admitted gambling issue and sought help for it. Do you recall another NHLer who had a severe issue with gambling? In 2003, Jaromir Jagr accrued $450,000 in gambling debts and owed around $3 million in back taxes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. Did that stigma stick with Jagr? Absolutely not.

I was completely unaware of Jagr's gambling debts and the $3M taxes he owed the IRS lol.
