The Quebec Citadelles were a junior, then a minor professional team. The junior team started play in the Junior Amateur Hockey Association in 1947-48. and then continued on under its new name the Quebec Junior Hockey League until 1953. The Citadelles won the league title in 1950-51. Partly as a result of this dispute, the Citadelles jumped to the Ontario Hockey Association in 1953-54 but they folded in December and amalgamated with the Quebec Frontenacs. In 1964-65 the team's name was changed to the Quebec Junior Aces.
