This Day In Hockey History (7/25)

Well the moments get more and more scarce this time of year.  However we will wish a Happy Birthday today to a guy well known in NHL circles.  He turns 47 so give him a nice round of applause and raise your drinking glass as well.  Just watch out for that stick because it flies quickly.
