Let's make this birthday one to remember.

47 years old (Born on August 15, 1977)

Happy Birthday, Martin Biron! You're the only goalie who can proudly say he's toured every crease in New York State—Sabres, Islanders and Rangers. Clearly you couldn't resist sampling all three flavors of Empire State hockey; talk about commitment to thorough research!

From your lightning-fast glove saves with Buffalo to those clutch performances at Madison Square Garden—and let's not forget that infectious smile behind an Isles mask—you've given fans countless memorable moments on ice. May this birthday bring as much joy as you've brought us over the years (and fewer pucks flying toward your face).

Cheers Marty—we salute a true NY hat-trick legend!
