A rumour involving former Boston Bruins forward signing with a Canadian team was just confirmed.
Milan Lucic returned to the Boston Bruins for his second stint after signing last a one-year $1 million deal in free agency last off-season. But ended it short as he would end up being arrested in November after only playing four games with the Boston Bruins.
The Boston Bruins placed Milan Lucic on an indefinite leave of absence after the incident took place, and ever since then there have been rumours that Lucic has struggled to find another team in the NHL.
There have been a lot of rumours of late pointing to Milan Lucic signing a contract with the Vancouver Canucks, but that was debunked by multiple insiders.
«According to a report from Thomas Drance & Rick Dhaliwal, the Vancouver Canucks have NOT shown any interest in forwards Nick Cousins or Milan Lucic, who are looking to resume their NHL careers for the 2024-25 season.»
Lucic has personal ties that link him to the Vancouver Canucks, hence the rumours, but we now know that Lucic will more than likely not play for the Canucks.
After the incident that took place with his wife during his second stint with the Boston Bruins, it may be hard for Milan Lucic to find another team in the NHL to play for.
Although it was reported that Milan Lucic has been training in New Jersey this off-season, doesn't mean he is going to get a contract.
