Let's make this birthday one to remember.

46 years old (Born on August 12, 1978)

Happy Birthday, Hayley Wickenheiser! You're the hockey legend who shattered ice ceilings faster than most of us can lace up skates. From making history as the first woman to play full-time professional hockey (and not even hiding behind goalie pads!), you've inspired countless young athletes and made defenders everywhere rethink their career choices.

Whether dominating on European rinks since 2003 or proudly representing Canada with four Olympic gold medals, your legacy is timeless—just like those classic Canadian winters. May your birthday be filled with laughter, joy, and fewer bruises than a playoff game against Team USA! Keep skating circles around expectations; you're unstoppable!
