In the post, Anna said that the San Jose Sharks forward has been intentionally losing games for money, stating, "How does the NHL let a compulsive gambling addict still play when he's obviously throwing games to win money? Hmm maybe someone needs to address this." Evander vehemently denied the allegations on Twitter this morning. Photo by USA Today
