The Boston Bruins are heading up to Patrice Bergeron’s old digs for a preseason matchup next fall.
The Bruins announced on Tuesday afternoon that they will play the Los Angeles Kings in an exhibition game at Quebec City’s Videotron Centre on Oct. 3, 2024. The Kings will also take on the Florida Panthers in a preseason matchup in the same venue on Oct. 5, 2024.
Even though Quebec City lost the Nordiques following the 1994-95 NHL season, Quebec’s second-largest city has remained a hockey hotbed. The Videotron Centre was completed in 2015, holds over 18,000 fans, and already serves as the home barn for the Quebec Remparts of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.
