Let's make this birthday one to remember.

40 years old (Born on March 21, 1985)

Happy Birthday, Ryan Callahan! From scrappy rookie in 2006 to fearless captain of the New York Rangers by 2011, you've always played hockey like someone just stole your lunch money. Your gritty style and relentless hustle made you a fan favorite—though we're still not sure if opponents loved or feared seeing number 24 barreling toward them.

And let's not forget that shiny silver medal from Vancouver's Winter Olympics in 2010—you wore red, white and blue with pride (and probably some bruises). Here's hoping your birthday is as legendary as those epic battles on ice—but maybe less painful!
