((HT: Hockey Night In Canada))
The HQ will stipulate, openly, that we follow the puck- regardless of level and geography...
And the HQ's home base that had the Atlanta Thrashers was ground zero for a lot of story-telling in the team's history. It involved weddings, firings, trades that stunned, and drafts that even stunned more...
It also involved, sadly, a death...and those kinds of phone calls that you get alerting you to those stories leave you with a pit in your stomach...
Dany Heatley was driving home from a local bar with teammate Dan Snyder in the passenger seat of his Ferrari in October of 2003. On a very curly, two-lane road with dips in elevation, Heatley crashed the car and the accident took Snyder's life...
The HQ covered the subsequent trial and how Snyder family has carried on from here...
And Graham and LuAnn have done so nobly...
HNIC caught up with them and the Snyder family's efforts over the weekend...
Few rival the people who the Snyders are as a family...
And we doubt many we come across will...
