Bettman Hasn’t Tried to Talk to Kane During Investigation

BlackhawksTORONTO (AP) – NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman says he has not talked to Patrick Kane while the Chicago Blackhawks star is being investigated about a sexual-assault allegation.Bettman told The Associated Press “nobody is going to talk to us” when asked Wednesday if he has attempted to contact Kane.

A person familiar with the investigation confirmed to The Associated Press earlier this week that Erie County prosecutors have postponed grand jury proceedings involving Kane. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because District Attorney Frank Sedita and police have not disclosed details of the case since announcing their investigation last month.

A second person familiar with the investigation says Kane is accused of sexually assaulting a woman at his offseason home near Buffalo. Kane has not been charged.
