This from Jim Shea:

I visited Owen in Hartford Hospital on Friday along with Kevin Hunt. He is going to be all right but is having a tough time.

He had two five-hour surgeries last week – elbow,  broken leg – and is very uncomfortable. That said, I think it really perked him up to see us.

He will be in the hospital until early next week and then faces a long rehab at Gaylord. If anyone has a chance, stop in to see him. He will really appreciate it.

In terms of information, Owen said the cause of the accident was he fell asleep and hit a large tree.
