Let's make this birthday one to remember.

40 years old (Born on July 30, 1984)

Happy Birthday, Matt Gilroy! From skating onto NHL ice with the New York Rangers in 2009 to bringing your defensive prowess down south with the Florida Panthers in 2013, you've always known how to keep opponents guessing. Your moves on defense have been smoother than a Zamboni ride and more reliable than hockey tape.

Here's hoping this birthday brings you as much joy as that unforgettable moment when you first stepped into Madison Square Garden wearing Ranger blue—or perhaps even better, like signing that fresh contract under sunny Florida skies. Keep defending goals (and birthdays) from getting past you—cheers!
