Let's make this birthday one to remember.

60 years old (Born on December 07, 1964)

Happy Birthday, Coach Laviolette! You're the only guy we know who can turn hurricanes into Stanley Cup celebrations. Your legendary 2006 run with Carolina still has fans dancing in their seats—though we're pretty sure your intense stare alone could have melted that ice.

From rallying teams to epic playoff victories, you've proven time and again you're a master of motivation (and maybe secretly part magician). Here's hoping this birthday brings you as much joy as hoisting Lord Stanley's trophy did back then—and may your next year be filled with fewer penalty minutes and even more unforgettable wins. Cheers!
