Minnesota Wild defenseman Ryan Suter shared an emotional message on Twitter on Tuesday after learning that Adam Herold - one of the victim's of the Humboldt Broncos bus crash - looked up to him.

Herold was the youngest player killed in the crash, and would have turned 17 on April 12. He had appeared in only nine games for the Broncos, eight of them during the team's current playoff run.

The left-handed defenseman was set to join the WHL's Prince Albert Raiders next season.
