It was first reported before the 2022-23 season that the NHL was looking to play games in a brand-new location during the fall of 2023.
Australia was the location reported and it appears the rumours are true, as according to Sean Shapiro of EP Rinkside, it's more likely than not that the Bruins will be going ''Down Under'' to play the Los Angeles Kings.
''Not completely finalized yet, but would expect an announcement in next couple weeks that the Bruins and Kings will play preseason game in Melbourne, Australia before next season. Kevin Weekes first reported league was looking into it back in January.''
Boston and LA aren't the first teams you think of when you think about NHL rivalries, but the two have combined for some tense games this season. Just ask Trent Frederic and Brendan Lemieux:
