Andrew Shaw wishes Niklas Hjalmarsson a happy birthday, gets chirped

Today is a great day: it's Niklas Hjalmarsson's birthday! The Chicago Blackhawks defenseman has been through it all with his team, and now, he's 29 years old. Time sure flies, doesn't it?

Hjalmarsson also joined Twitter just a couple of weeks ago, so now we have the opportunity to directly wish him a happy birthday. As do his teammates - or rather, teammate, as only Andrew Shaw seems to have stepped up to the plate thus far.

What a simple and sweet message.
