Fantasy Hockey Season 2007-08


Recommended Posts

Garon has been doing pretty well for me, and Sabourin played a good game before I dropped him for Toivenin(sp) I just need to have someone who will be playing until Huet is back. Luckily for me Legace is injured. (and that I have Vokoun in my second league... I am definitely being burned by Jagr and Kovalev in the past week though...

Ty Conklin is 6-0 while filling in for the injured M.A. Fleury. I picked him up in both leagues.

I was initially annoyed that I didn't get Ramo when he was available since it was discussed that he could be the starter for the rest of the year in Tampa. His numbers, however, just haven't been there.

Umm. I think I let my trade offer to Staffan linger a little too long. I think his stats were better than that when I proposed it.

The other factor is that I now have Carcillo back (another left winger) so my position imbalance is not so iniquitous as it once was.

Oh well. I better win the PIM category each and every week because anything else will be a failure.

Since I always end up with the same guys in both leagues, I need Rob Blake to be placed on the IR. He has a broken leg and Yahoo hasn't even bothered listing him as DTD.

Also, the Avery trade may prove fortuitous since my #1 PIM generator has found himself in the minors. Apparently the team is ticked that he gets so many game misconducts. I wasn't complaining, they were 10 PIMs each.

I was oh so very happy to slip into the #2 position until I realized that the #6 spot was only 6 points away. This is a very tight playoff race since the #7 and #8 teams are only slightly behind.

I'm up against an inactive this week so I better use this to pull ahead.

List of inactive players (to make a note for next year):

4 sub par weeks for me = 4 drops in the standings. Gah! Hopefully I can turn the ship around.

There is still a playoff, right? At the end of the season (last three weeks)?

How many teams advance to the playoffs? I seem to remember six fantasy teams...But it could have changed.

Indeed. 6 teams make it. Top 2 seeds get a bye. Under the league tab you will see the standings. Above the standings is 4 tabs. Click playoffs and the brackets as of today are listed.

its what happens when you are from toronto... zing! (my team was terrible...)

That was a low blow! Ah well I'll be laughing when Price crumbles in the playoffs and you realize how dumb trading Huet was :p *NOTE: This was more of a bitter retort than my actual belief. I like Price a lot*

    • I am not a US citizen nor a Trump fan. Respect to both left and right. But I will, for the sake of fun, predict something for my own. There will come a day when the US and China will collide like titans ( over Taiwan or anything else ). Then, on that day, some people in this comment section will realize how good an idea it was to become independent in areas like that. ( Or atleast try )
    • Microsoft Edge gets tons of security features, including AI model that can see your screen by Usama Jawad Microsoft Edge may not be the most popular browser out there, but it does receive quite frequent updates that sometimes bring surprising new features and axe others that are not as popular. Now, Microsoft has detailed some of the new security enhancements that it has introduced in Edge for Business, typically used by commercial customers. Microsoft has emphasized that security features are baked into Edge for Business and offer native integration with security and governance tools like Defender and Purview. Browser sessions are governed by default on managed devices but can also be governed through dedicated work profiles on unmanaged devices. An important aspect in this area is controlling the use of shadow AI. We have talked about this before, but it essentially restricts employees from using unsanctioned AI apps through data loss prevention (DLP) policies, with Edge redirecting them to trusted AI services like Microsoft 365 Copilot. This feature, available as a pay-as-you-go (PAYG) license, ensures that confidential data never exits AI boundaries set by your organization in Purview. Additionally, Microsoft also has strong DLP policies for contractors. Contractors leveraging a Entra ID-joined work profile provisioned by their contracting company on a device managed by their actual employer can be restricted from downloading files locally. In such scenarios, the file is saved on the contracting firm's OneDrive rather than being downloaded locally. Another useful Edge security feature disallows copying and pasting from unmanaged locations and apps. Similarly, DLP policies can be configured at a granular level to restrict screenshots or downloading of files from certain locations. In the same vein, IT admins can block the installation of extensions, hosted apps, themes and scripts, and control if users can install extensions from external locations. They can also enable the installation of specific extensions and allow users to request access to certain extensions, so that they can be managed on a case-by-case basis. Finally, Edge for Business now has an on-device AI model that uses computer vision to see what's on your screen and block potentially malicious content immediately. This does not rely on site reputation, as it simply monitors what is being displayed on your screen, which means that it is effective against malicious content that takes over your screen and employs scareware tactics. Since this is an on-device AI model, it does use your system's resources, so it's enabled by default only on devices with at least 2GB of RAM and four CPU cores. You can find more details in the Microsoft Mechanics video here.
