First day of each new season is 7/1. You can only expand leagues and make changes to the salary cap on this day. If it was in late June, like it use to be in previous versions and you expanded the league on 7/1, those new expansion teams would go a full year without being involved in the draft.
This was an issue a few years ago when Seattle was about to come into the NHL and everyone was expanding on 7/1/21 (game date) to add them into the NHL but they first draft was in June 2022.
