Evans was born in Peterborough, Ontario, and is the brother of NHL hockey players Paul Evans and Doug Evans. As a youth, Evans played in the 1978 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with a minor ice hockey team from Peterborough.[1]
Until being surpassed by Dennis Bonvie in the 2008 season, he was the career leader in penalty minutes in all of professional hockey, and still holds the single season professional hockey mark of 648, recorded in the 1987 season with the Kalamazoo Wings of the International Hockey League.
