Let's make this birthday one to remember.

35 years old (Born on May 04, 1989)

Happy Birthday, James van Riemsdyk! From being drafted 2nd overall by the Flyers in 2007 to lighting up arenas with your smooth skating and clutch goals, you've always known how to make an entrance. Whether it's your slick moves around defenders or that unforgettable trade for Luke Schenn—Flyers fans still debate who got the better deal—you've certainly kept things interesting!

Through Philly and Toronto, you've consistently dazzled fans with highlight-reel moments and timely goals. Here's hoping this year brings you even more success on the ice—and maybe another chance to remind everyone why you're worth every penny (and draft pick). Cheers!
