In many Buffalo homes, Christmas is a time of unfulfilled dreams. Presents cost money, and the cash simply isn’t there.
Evander Kane wanted to do something about it. He’s felt a lot of positivity since arriving in town, and the Sabres forward paid it back Friday by treating 50 kids from the Boys and Girls Club of Buffalo to dinner and a shopping spree.
“Not everybody gets an opportunity, especially as a kid, to get exactly what they want or have an opportunity to get gifts and presents,” Kane said. “It’s something that I wanted to do, give back a little bit and hopefully put some smiles on some kids’ faces, possibly when they have not been as excited for Christmas.
