ESPN fires Barnaby over DWI arrest

Matthew Barnaby

ESPN has fired analyst and former NHL player Matthew Barnaby after his arrest for drunken driving early this morning in the Buffalo suburb of Clarence.

“We spoke with Matthew and informed him we terminated his ESPN contract, effective immediately,” ESPN spokesman Josh Krulewitz told USA Today.

One expert thinks Barnaby could be deported back to Canada as a result of the incident.
