La série Montréal-Québec was a TV series featuring 32 hockey players, age 18 and over, forming two hockey teams: the Montréal team and the Québec City team. Each included two women, one player over 40 years old and one over 50. The series consisted of two seasons. In 2010, the two teams faced off in a series of 8 games, four in Québec City and four in Montréal. In 2012, the teams played only four games, two in Québec City and two in Montréal. All the games played in Montréal as well as the opening ceremonies for the series, were held at the Verdun Auditorium. The Québec City team was crowned the winner at the end of the two seasons of this major TV production.
