Happy parents Brittany and Looch! (Credit: Flickr/Slidingsideways)

Milan Lucic as we all know represents the Boston Bruins with the number 17. Yesterday, on January 17th, Looch was notably absent from practice at Ristuccia. But he has a pretty good excuse.

We here at A Cup A Bruin would like to congratulate Looch and his wife Brittany on the birth of their baby girl Valentina! She was born yesterday at 5:31 weighing 8 lbs 1 oz.

Today Looch is back on the ice while the rest of the team participates in an off ice practice.

On Baby Valentina, Looch said that it was “meant to be” that she was born on the 17th (Via @NHLBRUINS). He also said that mother Brittany and baby are healthy and doing well.

Hope Baby Looch is going to be able to rock these like her parents!
