Milan Lucic Makes Lewd Gesture Towards Canadiens Fans Inside Penalty Box

BOSTON (CBS) -- Four Boston teams were in action Thursday night, and only one of them was unable to come up with a win.

The Boston Bruins traveled north of the border to the Bell Centre in Montreal to take on the rival Canadiens, a team with a history of getting under the skin of the B's.

Well last night was no different, as Milan Lucic once again fell victim to his emotions and lashed out.

Lucic was called for boarding at the 18:40 mark in the third period for his hit on Alexei Emelin. While in the penalty box, he appeared to make a lewd gesture towards the Canadiens crowd, and afterwards he mimed holding up a Stanley Cup.

After leaving the box, Lucic yelled at a referee, was assessed a game misconduct and ultimately thrown out of the contest, a 6-4 loss.

According to Pierre LeBrun of ESPN, the NHL is reviewing the incident.
