A few minutes ago, Lauko posted a selfie on X.

"Modeling career defo in jeopardy😮‍💨but let's just say I was very very lucky🙏🏻"

He got extremely lucky. If the puck had hit his eye, it could have put his hockey career in danger. Now, he's only expected to miss a week.

"#NHLBruins announce Milan Lucic is out a couple weeks (lower body). Jakub Lauko is out a week (fracture and swelling). Ian Mitchell cleared waivers. Patrick Brown recalled. Danton Heinen skated today with fourth line. "
