San Jose Sharks left wing Evander Kane spoke out about racism in hockey after someone commented on his Instagram post, telling Kane to "stick to basketball" on Wednesday.
Kane posted a photo of himself on the ice to Instagram on Wednesday afternoon, seemingly excited about the start of the Sharks' NHL season against the Las Vegas Golden Knights on Oct. 2.
"Where it's all gonna start this season #35days until #1of82," Kane's caption said.
Several fans – and even the Sharks' official Instagram account – echoed his excitement in the comments on the photo.
