Heatley, Snyder injured in car wreck
Thrashers forward Dany Heatley, MVP of the 2003 All-Star Game and one of the NHL's rising young stars, and teammate Dan Snyder were seriously injured in a one-car accident on Lenox Road in Buckhead late Monday night.
Both players were taken to Grady Memorial Hospital for treatment after the 10:30 p.m. accident. Snyder, 25, was listed in critical condition and Heatley, 22, the NHL's 2002 rookie of the year, was listed as stable but was still being evaluated. Snyder, 25, was thrown from the car, which was traveling 80 mph, police said, and was undergoing surgery at 3 a.m. for a depressed skull fracture, according to team president Stan Kasten.
Heatley, who police said was driving, had a broken jaw, Kasten said, and several media outlets reported that he was conscious and talking. His black sports car was mangled beyond recognition in the crash.

Heatley might not ever play again. Most likely will be charged with Man Slaughter.

Snyder dies from massive brain injuries. Forget the physical recovery, I can't even begin to imagine how difficult Heatley's mental recovery is going to be. Facing charges is likely going to be the least of his problems.
