The current Boston Bruins forward is taking a leave of absence from the team.
One of many changes this past off season for the Boston Bruins was signing Milan Lucic as a free agent. The former Edmonton Oilers forward decided to return back to the team that drafted him.
Three weeks ago Lucic was placed on LTIR because of an ankle-related injury. Now his situation has become more complicated.
Earlier this morning the Bruins made an announcement on the availability of Lucic moving forward.
There were a few other journalists on Twitter who had more information to share on what has transpired.
According to news outlet WCVB-TV Boston, Lucic was arrested after a domestic incident early Saturday morning. Because of that, he is taking a leave of absence from the team.
There is no other information available at this time.
