The Providence Bruins is an ice hockey team in the American Hockey League, and are the primary development team for the NHL's Boston Bruins. They play in Providence, Rhode Island, USA at the Dunkin' Donuts Center.
[edit] History
In the 2001–2002 season, the Providence Bruins contracted with then-13-year-old musician Ben Schwartz to work as the official organist at all home games. As a result, Schwartz, now 19 and entering his seventh season with the team, is the youngest organist to ever work for a professional North American sports franchise in history.[1][2]
