Mr Zednik,
Get well soon! As soon as I heard the news I rushed to both a tv and computer to see how you were. I'm so glad you're going to be alright. I'm sorry that you were the unfortunate one to suffer such a horrible injury, but we can't wait for you to return to the ice! It's good to hear that you've got a terrific loving wife, teammates, coaching staff, medical personnel, and a whole ton of fans, that have rushed to your side. Take care, and hopefully we'll see you back on the ice soon. You're a thrill to watch; heck, you just scored a hat trick against my Leafs!
Best wishes,

I just saw the video of your accident last night and wanted to wish you well! Here's to a speedy recovery! Best wishes to you and yours! Get Well Soon!
Mr. Zednick,
On days like this, teams do not matter. As a hockey fan, and huge supporter of the sport and all those gifted enough to play it, I wish you well, and a speedy, full recovery from your unfortunate injury.
Having you grace the ice again, on which side of the blue line unimportant, will be a wonderful site to ALL fans of ALL teams.
My prayers are with you and your family, and hope to see you at MSG very soon.
Best Wishes

Hello Richard,
I'm happy to read that you are safe and in good hands in Buffalo hospital. I appreciated your game when you were in Montreal and hope to see you on the ice pretty soon. Take care & rest well.

I just couldn't believe what I saw on Sports Center! The fact that you were level headed enough to get back to the bench was the difference between this being a horrible accident and a complete tragedy!
Think of it this way, you will probably have the coolest scar in the NHL!
Best wishes for a quick recovery.

Dear Mr. Zednik,
Yesterday I was a Sabres fan but last night when you got injured I was your fan. I prayed for your safety and recovery. I will continue to pray for you and your family. This injury is just a freak accident that, and we are luck, doesn't happen very often. I wish to give you my best wishes and hope for a full recovery and that you will be able to get through this terrible time. Last night I saw a city, that really loves their hockey team, not care about how the game ended or how many points their team got or anything that pertained to the game last night but for the well being of you.
Best wishes, your fan from Buffalo,
Ciana Wood
