Career

During the 2001/02 season Mair went on the ice in 18 games for the Kings, he also played 27 games in the AHL for the Manchester Monarchs , the rest of the season he missed due to injury. In the summer of 2002, the Kings decided to transfer Mair to the Buffalo Sabers together with a five-round vote in the 2003 NHL Entry Draft in exchange for Erik Rasmussen . After this change, Mair never played in the AHL during his engagement in Buffalo, but was always in the Sabers NHL squad. The 2003/04 season was his best, when he scored six goals and 14 assists in 81 games. Until the end of the 2009/10 season he was mostly a regular player with the Sabers. In October 2010, he signed a contract with the New Jersey Devils , having previously attended the Devils training camp and pre-season.

After his contract expired in the summer of 2011, the Canadian was initially without a club before he signed a contract with the Springfield Falcons from the American Hockey League for the 2011/12 season . Previously, the striker had unsuccessfully participated in the Philadelphia Flyers pre-season , but without recommending himself for a commitment. He finally retired in the summer of 2012 at the age of 33 and was appointed Director of Player Development at Canisius College , which participated in the gaming operations of the National Collegiate Athletic Association . He left his post after a year before he was signed by his ex-team Buffalo Sabers as a development coach in the summer of 2015.
