In the run-up to the NHL Entry Draft in 1992, the Buffalo Sabres
interviewed Matthew Barnaby. John Muckler, Buffalo's coach, asked
him, "What happens at 8:05 on Saturday night in Detroit when Bob
Probert asks you to fight?” When the teenager responded,
“That’s easy. At 8:03, I’d have already asked Probert to
fight,” they knew they had to draft him. Through 14 NHL
seasons after that exchange, Barnaby never stopped fighting.
In Unfiltered, the former right wing reflects on the adventures of
a high-profile life and the determination that got him there, from
getting drafted last in juniors to carving out a role for himself
on each new NHL team, to discovering new joys and passions in
retirement. Barnaby also opens up about the memorable
hijinks, the larger-than-life hockey characters, and the very real
challenges and risks that come with the sport's physicality.
Both hilarious and heartrending, this is an unvarnished story of
battles fought and lessons learned.
