Let's make this birthday one to remember.

45 years old (Born on May 02, 1980)

Happy Birthday, Brad Richards! You're aging like fine Canadian maple syrup—sweet and legendary. From your clutch Conn Smythe-winning playoff run in 2004 with Tampa Bay to hoisting the Stanley Cup again with Chicago in 2015, you've always known how to skate circles around Father Time.

Whether it was threading impossible passes or scoring game-changing goals, you made hockey look easier than pronouncing "Saskatchewan." May this birthday bring as much joy as that unforgettable Game 6 assist against Boston—or at least more cake than penalty minutes. Cheers to another year of greatness on ice—and off it too!
