The Montreal Junior Hockey Club (French: Le Club de Hockey Junior de Montréal) was a junior ice hockey team in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL).[1] The team was based out of the Verdun Auditorium, in Verdun, Quebec, Canada. The St. John's Fog Devils franchise relocated at the conclusion of the 2007–08 QMJHL season.[2] The team's colours were maroon and white,[3] similar to the Montreal Maroons.[4] The Quebec Major Junior Hockey League approved the sale of the Juniors to a group led by former NHL Defensemen Joel Bouchard who moved the team to Boisbriand, Quebec for the 2011–12 season. The team plays its games at the Centre d'Excellence Sports Rousseau and is known as the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada.[5]
