The NHL Forces Milan Lucic Into A Program After His Arrest
NHL Unveils Significant Update Regarding Lucic's Situation
In a recent development, the NHL has divulged its decision on Milan Lucic, who faced legal charges following a domestic incident leading to his arrest last Friday.
The NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program will be the next destination for Milan Lucic during his indefinite hiatus from the Bruins.
This program serves as a support system designed to aid players in overcoming challenges related to mental health and substance abuse.
Given the involvement of alcohol in Lucic's recent arrest, this move appears to be a logical progression. Throughout his tenure in the program, Lucic will continue his indefinite leave from the Bruins.
The forthcoming court date for Lucic is scheduled for January 19th, 2024, and it's anticipated to be a key moment for updates on his situation. Any developments in the interim will be promptly shared with you.
