DA: Barnaby arrest raises deportation spector

Fired ESPN hockey analyst Matthew Barnaby's drunken driving charge jeopardizes an agreement the former NHL player reached to avoid potential deportation following an arrest earlier this year. Erie County District Attorney Frank Sedita warned Barnaby's arrest could have consequences on the Canadian's status in the United States because of his previous run-in with the law. Sedita was referring to an adjournment in contemplation of dismissal deal Barnaby reached in July to have five misdemeanor charges dropped in connection to a domestic dispute with his estranged wife. The 38-year-old is from Ottawa and was fired by ESPN on Monday, a day after being charged with drunken driving near his suburban Buffalo home.
