The NHL has officially released the preseason schedules for all 32 teams and for the Leafs, it will be a busy one. The Buds have 8 games on the schedule, which breaks down as follows:
Sunday, September 24 at Ottawa Canadian Tire Centre (Ottawa, ON)
Monday, September 25 vs. Ottawa Scotiabank Arena (Toronto, ON)
Wednesday, September 27 vs. Buffalo Joe Thornton Community Centre (, ON)
Friday, September 29 at Montréal Bell Centre (Montréal, QC)

Monday, October 2 vs. Montréal Scotiabank Arena (Toronto, ON)
Friday, October 5 vs. Detroit Scotiabank Arena (Toronto, ON)
Saturday, October 7 at Detroit Little Caesars Arena (Detroit, MI)
With the Leafs playing two games against Ottawa, one game against Buffalo, three games against Montreal and 2 games against Detroit, we should get a good look at all of the team's biggest stars, but also plenty of ice time for roster hopefuls and rookies as they look to make their mark following training camp.
The regular season is set to kick off on October 10th, though the Leafs don't play their first game of the season until October 11th, opening at home against the Montreal Canadiens.
