Arthur Gordon Bruce (May 9, 1919 – July 15, 1997) was a Canadian professional ice hockey forward who played 28 games in the National Hockey League for the Boston Bruins. He was born in Ottawa, Ontario.
During the 1940-41 season Boston Bruce was called up from the minors to play 7 regular season games. He was with the team during the playoffs, but did not play, so the Boston Bruins did not include his name on the Stanley Cup.
As a member of the Sudbury Wolves he helped Canada win the 1938 World Championships in Prague, Czechoslovakia by scoring 3 goals and 2 assist in 7 games.
