The Buffalo Sabres have placed assistant coach Adam Mair on administrative leave following a felony DWI arrest.
Multiple reports said Mair, 46, had three children in his car when he was arrested on Sept. 4 after allegedly rear-ending another vehicle in suburban Rochester, N.Y.
Mair, who played seven of his 11 NHL seasons with the Sabres, was charged with three felonies and three misdemeanors. Counts include aggravated driving while intoxicated with a child in the vehicle and endangering the welfare of a child.
A Monroe County Sheriff's deputy wrote that Mair had the 'strong odor of an alcoholic beverage' on his breath and had 'bloodshot' and 'glossy' eyes, according to WHEC-TV Rochester and WGRZ-TV Buffalo.
Mair currently is the Sabres' director of player development. He has been on the Buffalo staff since 2015.
The Sabres confirmed that Mair has been placed on leave but declined further comment.
A forward from Hamilton, Ontario, Mair recorded 114 points (38 goals, 76 assists) and 829 penalty minutes in 615 games with the Toronto Maple Leafs, Los Angeles Kings, Sabres and New Jersey Devils from 1999-2011.
