Bruins-Flames to play 2 preseason games in China in September

The Boston Bruins and Calgary Flames will play two preseason games in China in September, the league announced Wednesday.

This marks the second year in a row the NHL has organized games in China, as the Vancouver Canucks and Los Angeles Kings traveled across the Pacific last year to play a pair of contests in an effort to grow the game in the Chinese market.

The first game will be held Sept. 15 in Shenzhen, followed by another one Sept. 19th in Beijing, along with multiple camps and fan interactions hosted by the two teams.
