“It’s a place where I really feel like I became myself on my own, and that’s why it feels like I’m going home.”
Spoiler alert: Milan Lucic had his wish of signing with an Original Six team granted when he re-united with the Boston Bruins earlier in the offseason.

Ep 69: NHL Preseason, Rumors, Mike Babcock Saga
by Full Press Coverage on September 24, 2023 at 4:07 am
Jim and Chris are back to discuss the beginning of the NHL preseason, the […]
Lucic, the former and now current member of the Boston Bruins, made an appearance on the Spittin’ Chiclets Podcast and discussed, among other things, his desire to play for any Original Six team (except for the Maple Leafs) during his brief free agency.
“The main thing for me is…I kind of wanted to go back to an original six team and stuff like that because I had really enjoyed that. When you start somewhere, you don’t really understand what it fully means until you’re gone. I don’t want to say I took it for granted because I didn’t. I enjoyed and embraced being a Bruin as much as I possibly could… sometimes you don’t truly understand it until you go somewhere else.”

After his initial conversation and before ultimately signing with the Bruins, Lucic had discussions with the Detroit Red Wings and New York Rangers. Even Toronto could have been an option, but Lucic candidly admitted his roots with the Bruins would prevent him from signing with the Maple Leafs, and, ultimately, those roots led him back to Boston.
“For me, there was always a connection with the fans, the connection with the city, so, for me to go back to that, it’s pretty awesome. I get a little bit of goosebumps just thinking about it.”
