The Maple Leafs and the preseason roster rules and regulations

The first NHL preseason game was yesterday, a surely exciting game between (checks notes) the Arizona Coyotes and the Vegas Golden Knights? Garret Sparks was there, sitting on the Golden Knights’ bench.
The Maple Leafs have their first game tomorrow. However, it is still the preseason and that means there’s a few special rules and regulations in place. There’s always uncertainty around these every preseason, probably because they are in effect for such a short period of time.
