Insider Dave Pagnotta has confirmed that Bruins forward Milan Lucic will not be returning to Boston.
Fans were very excited to have #17 back this season after he signed a one year deal with Boston but only played in a few games before been forced to leave the team due to legal issues.
With Milan Lucic also not returning next season, Sweeney will have some depth holes to fill, beyond another scoring forward he hopes to acquire in some fashion this summer.
While Sweeney has confirmed he will not be bringing Lucic back, there has been no update on if Lucic plans on trying to find another contract or if he will decide to call it a career.
