The teams will face off Sept. 23 in an NHL pre-season game at the Halifax Metro Centre. Halifax has hosted NHL exhibition games for years, with Boston and Montreal last meeting in the city in 2002.
Promoter Edgar Goguen says the Bruins first played at the Metro Centre shortly after the venue opened in the late 1970s.
Tickets for September's exhibition game go on sale Thursday morning at a cost of $55 and $70 before tax and service charges.
