Let's make this birthday one to remember.

39 years old (Born on July 17, 1985)

Happy birthday, Loui Eriksson! From the moment you stepped on NHL ice as the Stars' 33rd pick in '03, your slick skating and sneaky goal-scoring made defenders look silly. We fondly remember your seven stellar seasons lighting up Dallas (and later Boston) with clutch goals and timeless flow that always belonged in a highlight reel.

Of course, who could forget being part of one of hockey's biggest blockbuster trades—the famous "Seguin swap"? You've carved out an impressive career defined by sharp instincts around the net and quieter leadership off it. Cheers to another year wiser—but hopefully just as slippery on skates!
