Career
Evans initially played for three years from 1983 to 1986 in the Canadian junior leagues OHL and WHL for various teams.
During his last year in the WHL, the Kalamazoo Wings from the International Hockey League signed the undrafted left winger in 1986. The Wings were at that time the farm team of the Minnesota North Stars from the National Hockey League , which Evans signed before the 1988/89 season . In the 1990/91 season , the Canadian ran in his first four games for the North Stars before he was selected in the 1991 NHL Dispersal Draft by the newly formed San Jose Sharks .

Mainly he spent the season but with the Kansas City Blades from the IHL, with which he could win the Turner Cup , the league championship.
The five NHL appearances with the Sharks were the last of his career and the Canadian subsequently played exclusively in the minor leagues .
