Game Details

The Providence Bruins return to action after nearly two weeks off to begin their Calder Cup playoff run on Friday, May 1 at 7:05pm against the Springfield Thunderbirds at Amica Mutual Pavilion. This is Game 1 of a best-of-5 division semifinals series in the 2026 AHL playoffs.

Providence's Top Seeding

The Bruins earned the top seed in the Atlantic Division and Eastern Conference after a record-setting season where they accumulated 54 wins and 110 points under coach Ryan Mougenel, who won the AHL Coach of the Year award. Goaltender Michael DiPietro won the Baz Bastien Award as the league's top goaltender and became only the ninth goalie in AHL history to win the Les Cunningham Award as the league's MVP.

Series History

The Bruins will look to knock the Thunderbirds out of the playoffs for a second consecutive year. Providence won seven of their 12 regular season meetings against Springfield. However, the teams have played competitively against each other, with Springfield posting a 5-5-2 record against Providence during the regular season and winning two games where they were not outshot.
