It’s been a little while since we checked in with Milan Lucic here on Bruins Daily. The last time we wrote anything about him was back in the summer evaluating his trade to the Kings on Draft Day for Colin Miller, Martin Jones (who was later traded to San Jose for prospect Sean Kuraly and a first round pick in 2016) and Los Angeles’ first round pick this past June.
Forty-seven games into his first season in Southern California, Lucic, who has 29 points on 12 goals and 17 assists, is back under fire again. In Saturday’s game in Arizona, the former Bruin sucker punched Coyotes’ defenseman Kevin Connauton in retaliation for getting slashed on the hand.
