Alongside Szwarz, he will have Colby Cave and Chris Breen as Alternate Captains.
Coming to the P-Bruins on a PTO, Szwarz hit the ground running as a member of Providence, leading the team in points in 2016-17, and then being top 3 in 2017-18. He’s also had a leadership role as a member of the Portland Pirates when they still existed.
Congrats to him, and to turning the P-Bruins season towards Calder Cup contendership under his leadership!
