Evander Kane will face non-criminal harassment charges in court for bar allegations

Two women are pressing harassment charges against the Sabres winger, who was in a late night altercation the night of the draft.

The Buffalo News is reporting that Sabres winger Evander Kane will avoid criminal charges being pressed against him for an incident that took place in a downtown Buffalo bar two weeks ago, but he will still have to face civil (non-criminal) harassment charges. The newspaper also reports that Kane has refused thus far to cooperate with Buffalo police in their investigation.

The incident in question happened the night before the 2016 NHL Draft on June 24th at Bottoms Up on Chippewa.
