March 10, 2007 -  Happy Treantafel is at home recovering nicely after having a heart attack after the February 11 Prudential Northeast Sled Hockey League where Happy plays wing for the New Hampshire Wildcats. The doctors have told him no more hockey for this year but haven't ruled out a return for next season. In the mean time Happy will continue as one of the most active supporters on the New England Bruins Sled Hockey Program where he serves as Board Member At-Large and a fund-raising expert. Happy has every intention of attending the Prudential Lobster Pot and the New England Invitational Sled Hockey Tournament to support his teammates even though he knows he can't play. .

Happy awoke about 2 a.m.on Monday morning after the 2/11 Game Day with an incredible shortness of breath. "I just couldn't catch my breath," he said. "I wasn't in any pain but I kind of knew I was in trouble when the dog was being unusually affectionate." Anyone that knows Happy's canine companion, Chief, would know that this would be very out of character for the Chow. "I called 911 and the cops got here right away. I gotta give them credit," Happy continued, "We decided we'd better get me to the hospital right away so I set Chief up with some food and told him to bite the first son of a bitch that comes through the door while I'm away."

We're all glad your feeling better Happy! See you soon.
