Boston Bruins forward Milan Lucic had some extra words for Montreal Canadiens forward Dale Weise and defenseman Alexei Emelin in the handshake line that followed Wednesday night's Game 7 of the NHL Eastern Conference semifinals.
It was a hard-fought series, with the Canadiens winning the deciding game 3-1. However, it would seem that Lucic was a little upset and wasn't ready to move on that quickly after the game:
Weise says Lucic threatened him in the handshake and said something similarly threatening to Emelin. Emotional series ends with tough words.

Lucic did not seem happy afterwards that Weise went public with their "private" conversation:
Lucic steamed when told that Weise revealed their conversation in handshake line: "If he wants to be a baby about it, he can go right ahead"

For now, Lucic will have to wait until next season.
H/T FTW.
