Trevor Zegras is an American forward known for his creative, highlight-reel style of play, drafted ninth overall by the Anaheim Ducks in 2019.
Trevor John Zegras was born on 20 March 2001 in Bedford, New York, to parents of Greek descent, Gary and Julie, and began skating at just three years old, growing up idolising Chicago Blackhawks star Patrick Kane despite being a lifelong New York Rangers fan himself as a child. Zegras played college hockey at Boston University before the Anaheim Ducks selected him ninth overall in the 2019 NHL Draft, and he quickly developed a reputation as one of the league's most creative and highlight-reel playmakers on the ice. Zegras became known for a series of viral, trick-shot goals and assists that captured widespread attention beyond traditional hockey audiences, helping to raise his profile as one of the sport's most exciting and marketable young talents in recent years. Zegras was traded to the Philadelphia Flyers, and has continued to represent the United States internationally, remaining one of the most skilled and imaginative offensive players of his hockey generation to date.
