Let's make this birthday one to remember.

61 years old (Born on March 09, 1964)

Happy Birthday, Phil Housley! From the moment you skated onto NHL ice as Buffalo's fresh-faced rookie in 1982, you've dazzled fans with your smooth skating and legendary defensive skills. Over two decades of hockey greatness—scoring over 1,200 points and becoming one of the highest-scoring defensemen ever—you've proven that age is just a number (though we won't mention exactly which birthday this is!).

Whether it was your unforgettable years with the Sabres or representing Team USA proudly on international ice, you've always been an inspiration. Here's hoping today brings fewer penalties than candles on your cake! Cheers to you!
