Breaking: Milan Lucic a late scratch due to a leg injury. Patrick Brown will replace him on the 4th line. #NHLBruins vs #AnaheimDucks
The Injury's Origin
The root of Lucic's injury traces back to yesterday's game against the LA Kings.
Milan Lucic took a puck to the ankle before Morgan Geekie's goal last night.

With Lucic's absence, the Bruins are not just missing a player on the ice but also a significant figure in their locker room. The hope now rests on his speedy recovery.
