World Juniors 2021: Tweet from 2011 — on a Blackberry — predicts Trevor Zegras' USA success image

Twitter went crazy Tuesday night when a tweet from 10 years ago surfaced.

"Remember the name Trevor Zegras," Kyle Galliver tweeted on July 5, 2011. "The kid is super talented, could be in the #NHL one day. #hockey #futureNHLstars #thebricktournament"

He tweeted this. Ten years ago. When Zegras just 10 years old. How?

The Brick Invitational is considered a marquee youth hockey tournament played in Edmonton, Alta. It showcases kids 10 years or younger so, yes, the now-19-year-old would have been just 10 when this prophecy was made. At the tournament, the 2021 IIHF World Junior Championship gold medalist and tournament MVP potted 13 points (eight goals, five assists) in six games for the Connecticut Yankees.

Needless to say, twitter went wild — and also went wild because he tweeted it from a Blackberry.
