McKenna Hockey Trouble: Latest News & Updates

This season, the Canadian has collected 32 points (11 goals and 21 assists) in 24 games.

It is McCann who is predicted to be the first pick in this year’s NHL draft, according to information on the NHL website. The NHL and ESPN have not commented on McCann, saying they are aware of the allegations. No comments are made as he is not yet a league player.

Meanwhile, the University of Pennsylvania released a brief statement: “We are aware of the allegations, but given that the matter is pending in court, we will not be commenting further.”

McKenna shocked the hockey world last year by choosing to leave Canadian junior hockey and join the University of Pennsylvania. In 2024, the NCAA changed the rules to allow players from Canadian junior leagues to compete in NCAA Division I. McCann was one of the first to take advantage of the opportunity, and his NIL (name, image and reputation) contract at the University of Pennsylvania is worth about $700,000, according to ESPN.
