Milan Lucic's wife Brittany hypes his AHL debut for the T-Birds at a sold-out MassMutual Center

It was a packed house at the MassMutual Center on Friday night as longtime Boston Bruins favorite Milan Lucic made his AHL debut with the Springfield Thunderbirds. The game drew a sold-out crowd and plenty of excitement including from one of his biggest supporters, his wife Brittany Lucic who shared a series of stories on her Instagram from the game day.

Brittany kicked off her day with a smiling selfie captioned “Good afternoon Springfield,” before sharing the official “Thunderbirds SOLD OUT” game graphic ahead of puck drop. Once inside the arena, she posted a clip of the rink set to Guns N’ Roses’ “Welcome to the Jungle” writing:

“LET’S GOOOOOOO,” she added reposting it.

Finally, Brittany shared a clip showing Milan wearing No. 12 walking down the tunnel toward the ice, surrounded by fans reaching out to greet him.

The night marked Lucic’s first-ever AHL appearance. The 37-year-old forward joined Springfield on a professional tryout contract after attending St. Louis Blues training camp earlier this fall. He played in four preseason games with the Blues posting a goal and an assist before suffering a lower-body injury.

Lucic, who won the Stanley Cup with the Bruins in 2011, has appeared in 1,177 NHL games totaling 233 goals, 353 assists and 1,301 penalty minutes.

Milan Lucic’s wife launched ‘Reclaimed Grace’

Earlier last month, Brittany Lucic announced the launch of a subscription-based wellness and self-help program titled “Reclaimed Grace”.

The initiative, priced at $26 per month, is designed to help members reframe negative narratives and reduce the stigma surrounding personal struggles. In her announcement video, Brittany shared that she was thrilled to finally introduce the project she had been developing with her team.

“People know that others are struggling, but there’s such a shame and stigma and an embarrassment, so it’s easier to point fingers instead of looking at yourself in the mirror,” Brittany explained. “I really wanted to create a program where people can make those first steps in the privacy of their own home.”

Her husband Milan Lucic publicly showed his support in the comments, writing:

“Congrats love. Being of service and helping others is so special and so great. Proud of you ❤️”

Brittany later thanked viewers for their encouragement and for checking out her new platform adding that she looked forward to hosting live sessions and continuing to grow the Reclaimed Grace community.
