Mark Spector has often been critical of Evander Kane and his purpose on the Edmonton Oilers. He believes that Evander Kane brings more distractions than he does production and has not been afraid to share that opinion.
Now of course Evander Kane has been dealing with allegations of bringing drama and distractions for a long time. For the most part he has ignored the noise and kept to himself about it. Today that all changed when Evander Kane addressed the media in Edmonton and decided to take a dig at Mark Spector after being asked a question by him.
If you hadn't seen the previous comments from Mark Spector you might not have even noticed the shot that Evander Kane took. But with the context it shows Evander Kane standing his ground and showing he will not be bullied by the media talking about him being a distraction.
To this point the Edmonton Oilers find themselves up 2-1 in the series against the Los Angeles Kings. As the series continues the Oilers will need Evander Kane to be a key part of their offensive success to pull out a series victory.
