Jim Montgomery Anticipates Fewer Hits on Bruins Stars with Milan Lucic's Return

When Milan Lucic signed a one-year deal with the Bruins in July, it was clear he meant business, believing he can still make an impact at 35.

Coach Jim Montgomery echoed this sentiment, anticipating Lucic's presence would protect star players like David Pastrnak and Brad Marchand from heavy hits.

Lucic's history with the Bruins adds weight to his role.

Montgomery faces the challenge of finalizing the lineup for the upcoming season, with open spots in the bottom six. He hopes for pleasant surprises like last year with Lauko and Greer.

Despite changes, Montgomery trusts his coaching staff to lead the Bruins to success in the new season.
