"The Buffalo Sabres placed player developmental coach Adam Mair on administrative leave on Thursday after reports surfaced of the former NHL player being arrested on a drunk driving charge with three children in his car last week. The Sabres had no further comment, except to say they are aware of the situation. WGRZ-TV Buffalo cited court records in reporting Mair was arrested in suburban Rochester, New York, on Sept. 4 after rear-ending another vehicle."
"WGRZ said a deputy wrote in the police report that he could smell a strong odour of alcohol on Mair's breath and that his eyes were bloodshot and glassy. Deputies said Mair failed field sobriety tests and initially refused to take a chemical breath test after he was taken to the police station. Deputies said Mair changed his mind and took the test and his blood alcohol content was measured at 0.2% more than twice the legal limit of 0.08%."

Deputies reported a strong odour of alcohol, bloodshot eyes, failed field sobriety tests, initial refusal of a breath test, and an eventual BAC of 0.2%. Mair faces three felonies and three misdemeanors and had played 11 NHL seasons before coaching.
