Mandatory Credit: Aaron Doster-USA TODAY Sports/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsNov 14 (Reuters) - Quebec City, which has been without a National Hockey League (NHL) team since the Nordiques departed for Colorado in 1995, will host two preseason games next October featuring the Los Angeles Kings, the club announced on Tuesday. The training camp and games will take place at the Videotron Centre, a venue that opened in 2015 with the goal of one day being home to an NHL team. "I know how passionate Quebec City fans are about the game," Kings President and Hockey Hall of Famer Luc Robitaille said in a news release. The Nordiques were founded in 1972 and played in the World Hockey Association before joining the NHL in 1979. Canada's seven NHL teams earn ticket and concession revenue in Canadian dollars while salaries are paid in U.S. dollars.
