Bruins winger Milan Lucic is due in court on Monday or Tuesday to face a charge of assault and battery on a family or household member, according to the Suffolk district attorney’s office.

The Bruins announced Saturday that Lucic would be taking a leave of absence from the hockey team after what the team called an unspecified “incident” from the night before.
