Bruins to host six-team “Battle of the Badges” police and fire hockey tournament

The Bruins sent along a pretty cool news release this morning: they’re partnering with the Boston Fire Hockey Club and Boston Police Hockey Club to host a six-city, twelve-team hockey tournament in Dorchester, Southie and Brighton this weekend.

The tournament features hockey teams comprised of fire and police personnel from Boston, New York City, Chicago, Detroit, Montreal and Toronto. Dubbed the “Battle of the Badges,” it kicked off this morning at 10 AM at Devine Rink in Dorchester, more commonly known as The Greatest Place on Earth®.

The teams will face each other throughout the weekend, both at Devine Rink in Dorchester and at Murphy Rink on Day Boulevard in Southie, with a championship game being played at Warrior Ice Arena in Brighton on Sunday at 11 AM.
