Bruins Alumni Bill Bennett and the late Chuck Scherza will be enshrined into the the RI Hockey Hall of Fame on Saturday, Aug 17th at Rhodes-on-the-Pawtuxet in Cranston, RI.

Both will be honored along with more RI hockey royalty in an event that is always entertaining and memorable.




Scherza played 36 games in the NHL spending 9 of them in the Bruins system, scoring 2 points(1 G, 1 A), and was known as a heavy hitter in the AHL. His NHL tenure was short and was during the time of WWII, which led to a drastic shortage of players, so he got his look with the Bruins and Rangers from 1943 to 1945.

While William Bennett played 31 games for the Boston Bruins and Hartford Whalers, will join Scherza in the RIHHOF.

Bennett played 7 games for the Bruins during the 1978-1979 season scoring 5 points(1 G, 4 A) with the team.
