Let's make this birthday one to remember.

39 years old (Born on May 13, 1985)

Happy Birthday, Travis Zajac! From your rookie debut with the New Jersey Devils in 2006-07 to becoming one of hockey's most reliable two-way forwards, you've always shown us how it's done. Whether winning face-offs or scoring clutch goals, you’ve consistently proven that having a complete skillset is cooler than flashy moves (though we wouldn't mind seeing some dance moves on ice!).

And let's not forget representing Canada and bringing home silver at the 2009 World Championships—clearly you're as good internationally as you are domestically. Here's hoping this birthday brings fewer penalties and more cake slices; after all these years skating circles around opponents, you've earned it!
