Milan Lucic knows what his role is with the Bruins
Milan Lucic, known for his physicality and unwavering toughness, has always been a fan favorite among Boston Bruins supporters.
In a recent episode of "Dropping the Gloves," Lucic, a seasoned veteran with 16 years of experience, was asked by former NHL enforcer John Scott if he still believed in his ability to engage in fights on the ice.
Without hesitation, Lucic responded,
Boston fans wouldn't appreciate it if I didn't bring that element. I just have to stay true to myself, and that includes embracing that side of my game."
Throughout his career, Lucic has never been one to shy away from a confrontation or a bone-crushing hit. Scott even posed a hypothetical scenario, questioning how Lucic would handle Connor Bedard, the overall No. 1 pick, charging towards him in open ice during Game 1 of the NHL season.
Lucic's response was resolute: "You've got to run him over."
Within the Bruins' locker room, Lucic eagerly anticipates playing alongside one of the team's current tough guys, Trent Frederic. Having closely followed the Bruins last season, Lucic praised Frederic's game, recalling a standout performance against the Los Angeles Kings.
After engaging in a spirited bout with Brendan Lemieux, Frederic proceeded to score two crucial goals, including the game-winner.
Prior to signing his one-year contract on the first day of free agency, Lucic engaged in a conversation with Bruins General Manager Don Sweeney, during which they discussed his role as a leader for younger players like Frederic.
