Milan Lucic, a professional ice hockey player, was born on June 7, 1988, in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. He is of Serbian descent, the son of Dobrivoje Lučić, a longshoreman, and Snežana Kesa. Milan has two brothers, and his early interest in hockey was largely influenced by his uncle, who played the sport professionally. This close family connection introduced him to the game at a young age.
Lucic attended Killarney Secondary School in Vancouver, where he actively played ice hockey during his teenage years. During this time, he was diagnosed with Scheuermann's disease, a condition affecting the spine that can lead to a curvature of the back. Although the diagnosis temporarily halted his hockey development, he made a full recovery and returned to the sport without long-term physical limitations.
Milan Lucic married his longtime girlfriend, Brittany Carnegie, in 2012. The couple has two daughters, Valentina and Nikolina. They maintain a private yet strong relationship and have built a family life outside of Lucic’s demanding professional hockey career.
In 2004, after recovering from his health setback, Milan began his junior hockey career with the Coquitlam Express in the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL). His performance earned him attention and further opportunities in minor hockey leagues. He continued to build his skills and reputation playing with teams such as the Vancouver Giants in the Western Hockey League (WHL), where he gained significant recognition for his aggressive playing style and leadership qualities.
Lucic’s breakthrough came in 2006 when he was drafted 50th overall by the Boston Bruins in the NHL Entry Draft. He made his NHL debut with the team in 2007 and quickly established himself as a key part of their lineup. Known for his physical presence and scoring ability, Lucic became a fan favorite and played eight seasons with the Bruins. During this period, he contributed significantly to the team's success, including their Stanley Cup victory in 2011.
In 2015, Lucic was traded to the Los Angeles Kings, where he continued to perform at a high level. After one season with the Kings, he signed with the Edmonton Oilers in 2016. Later, he also played for the Calgary Flames before returning to the Boston Bruins in 2023. Over his career, Lucic has been recognized for his consistent performance, having participated in events such as the NHL YoungStars Game and earning accolades including the Stafford Smythe Memorial Trophy and the President's Cup during his junior tenure.
As of recent estimates, Milan Lucic has accumulated a net worth of approximately $22.5 million through his professional ice hockey career and endorsements. He maintains an active presence on social media, particularly on Twitter, where he has over 72,000 followers. Lucic continues to be a prominent figure in Canadian ice hockey, both for his on-ice achievements and his public visibility.
