Bruins Player Milan Lucic Set To Appear In Court
In a startling turn of events, rumors circulated yesterday afternoon regarding the arrest of Boston Bruins icon Milan Lucic on Friday night.
The surprise arrest contradicted earlier reports suggesting Lucic's imminent return to the lineup, following a setback disclosed by Jim Montgomery last week.
However, the weekend unfolded with Lucic taking an unexpected leave of absence from the Bruins amid emerging details of a police visit to his home, alleging an incident where he reportedly choked his wife on Saturday night.
As the legal process unfolds, Lucic is slated for arraignment on Monday, with unconfirmed details circulating. The 35-year-old, currently on leave, faces potential contract termination, opening up $1 million in cap space for the Bruins. T
he ominous cloud hanging over Lucic's career suggests a somber conclusion to a once illustrious journey.
