"The biggest thing for us is we care a lot about their family. We're a family in here. We're all very, very close. So, we're very concerned and upset for them and what they're going through, but we have a lot of support for Brittany and the kids and Looch himself".

The Bruins leader would also label Lucic as a “good friend” and added that it was hard to see someone like them go through this situation. Some fans have since attacked Marchand for this comment and are urging for a strong action against Lucic.

It is likely that a few more updates will be released in the upcoming days as the investigation takes place. For now, the return to Boston is proving to be a nightmare for the Canadian forward.
