Ottawa Senators to Play Preseason Games in Quebec City

The Senators will face the Devils and Canadiens at the Videotron Centre, marking a return of NHL action to the former home of the Nordiques.

The Ottawa Senators announced plans to play two preseason games in Quebec City during their 2025 training camp.
The games will take place at the Videotron Centre, with the Senators facing the New Jersey Devils on September 28 and the Montreal Canadiens on September 30.
This marks a return of NHL action to Quebec City, which was home to the Nordiques franchise from 1979 to 1995 before relocating to Denver as the Colorado Avalanche.
The Montreal Canadiens last played an exhibition game in Quebec City in 2002, making their return to the city a notable event for fans.
Quebecor, the operator of the Videotron Centre, confirmed no public funds will be used to stage these games, contrasting with past events hosted at the venue.
