Milan Lucic's future as a Bruin is in limbo following allegations of assaulting his wife. The 35-year-old winger, known for his contributions to the team over the years, has entered the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program after appearing in court.

The Bruins, supportive of his decision, maintain he remains on indefinite leave. Domestic violence, an intolerable act, should not be condoned by any sports franchise.

Based on details from the police report, Lucic's involvement in a physical altercation with his wife raises serious concerns.

As the legal process unfolds, it appears increasingly likely that parting ways with Lucic will be necessary for the Bruins, especially in the wake of past controversies. The signing of Mitchell Miller just over a year ago remains a lingering question mark.

Lucic's return to the Bruins, initially a well-intentioned move, has taken a regrettable turn. His potential dismissal highlights the franchise's commitment to maintaining a reputable image.

Now, as the legal proceedings shape the narrative, the Bruins face the task of making a decisive statement, echoing the sentiment of "Enough!"
