Milan Lucic has backpedaled from emotional statements he’s made in the past, but with two days to think about his latest heat-of-the-moment remarks, he’s not sorry about what he said in the handshake line following the Boston-Montreal series.
From ESPN’s Joe McDonald:
Lucic on handshake: "I'm not sorry."

Added, "What's said on the ice, stays on the ice. I'm not the first guy or the last guy."
In case you somehow missed what Lucic said to Montreal’s Dale Weise, it was apparently, “I’m going to f------ kill you next year.”
The big Bruins winger also reportedly threatened Alexei Emelin in a similar manner.
Update: From NHL.com’s Arpon Basu in Montreal:
"I never personally went into any detail about what he said. I believe that should stay on the ice, and we'll leave it at that." Dale Weise
