Sabres place development coach Adam Mair on leave after drunk-driving arrest with 3 children in car

Adam Mair faces six charges including three felonies for driving with 0.2% blood alcohol content and three children in the car, leading to his indefinite administrative leave.

  • On Thursday, September 11th, 2025, the Buffalo Sabres placed Adam Mair on administrative leave amid their five-day prospects tournament, stating, `We are aware of the situation involving Adam Mair. He has been placed on administrative leave. We will have no further comment at this time.`
  • On Sept. 4, police say Adam Mair was arrested after his vehicle allegedly rear-ended another car with three children inside in Pittsford, New York.
  • Deputies wrote that they smelled alcohol and noted bloodshot, glassy eyes while Mair failed field sobriety tests and initially refused a chemical breath test, later showing a blood alcohol content 0.2%, with records stating he said `I was going too fast`.
  • The charges remove a development coach from duty while Buffalo hosts its five-day prospects tournament and prepares for training camp next week, as Monroe County Sheriff's Office charges include three felonies and three misdemeanors.
  • Mair has been with the Sabres' development staff since 2015 and has served as Director of Player Development since 2021 after an 11-season NHL career including seven seasons with Buffalo Sabres.
