You gotta start drinking pretty early in the day to blow a .2 by the time you get to the police station for a breathalyzer. Abhorrent behavior to drive that drunk, especially when you have kids in the car.

Terrible judgement. Hope he gets the help he needs.

Who else in the organization would take over as Director of Player Development (assuming he is permanently relieved of his duties)?

Adam played in the Kings system in Manchester NH. I watched him a bunch with the AHL Monarchs. Sorry to hear this.

…but but but he wants to be here.  
 

 

What a knucklehead.  Put on leave?  What a joke.  Should have been fired ASAP.

Innocent until proven guilty?

I get it. But you still have to rely on due process.

The legal system does. The Sabres do not.

What an a$$. 

Thats 10 drinks in your system within an hour. On a Thursday at 430pm when people are trying to get home from work, and buses are bringing kids home. AND he had kids in the car. 

Should be fired on the spot. And I find it hard to believe this was a one off incident and zero people in the organization had any idea there was a problem.

Presuming his liver functions properly, yes, that would be a reasonable interpretation of the situation.  If the medication he's on, or other potential health issues, kept his liver from processing alcohol correctly then he might've had a 6 pack of a double IPA the night before and not realized he was still quite drunk the next day after a full night's sleep.

Not excusing his lack of realization of his situation nor stating that your version of the situation isn't in fact the correct one.  And understand why the Sabres would place him on administrative leave immediately for this event happening.  But will wait to join the tar and feather brigade until after the full facts are known.

And thank God that it appears nobody in either car was injured.  Bumpers can be replaced; lives, not so much.
