My girlfriends great oma's (101 yrs old) health is failing, so I was visiting there, and unfortunately missed the draft. But at least I din't set a partial draft list this time around and got a more varied set of goalies.

I had to look up what you guys were talking about. Usually the season doesn't start to Oct 3rd or so.

This year there is a two game series that is taking place in the U.K. before the rest of the season kicks in.

Whomever gets me for the next five weeks is going to have an easier time of it. I'm going to turtle up for a while and hope to get at least one decent defenseman off the IR. I also picked up a third goalie which wasn't in my original plans.

Everyone in the other league seems desperate for a third goalie due to the size of the league (14 players). I don't suppose that overcompensating here will help my other team but at least it gives me some variety. With 8 players we should all be able to carry three starting goaltenders and still have a few left over.

I just gained another IR player and I have a goalie that's DTD who I wouldn't be surprised if he hit the IR too.

So, for those who are counting at home, I have 3 IR players and one DTD. I have none in my other league.

Edit: Lehtonen's place on the IR is all but assured. That will put me at 4 players on the IR.

Waddell said Lehtonen could "be out a while."

I have Shea Weber on IR right now, but it's only 3-6 weeks so I think I'll keep him. Then I have Hejduk on DTD from a sore back, so he should be back soon. He might even be playing tonight.

Well, I was drunk and took a rumor as truth and dropped bouwmeister who was doing **** all for me anyways and picked up Forsberg. Does not having a full D line hurt me?

I had (or maybe have) only three healthy D. Will it hurt, yes. Will it kill you, no. You'll mostly notice it on Saturdays and maybe one day during the week. If you have a properly balanced team then you should have all of your spots in use on a Saturday.

Eh bouwmeister(SP!) was doing **** all for me anyways. Might as well have someone who can't lose me the plus minus category.

Damn, I was up by a lot this entire week, and then I go away for the weekend without web access and I wasn't able to change the roster around so now I'm not sure how everything will end up. :(

      One of reasons why they have so much infrastructure available is that severely overestimated how many people would be using Grok.

    • Microsoft confirms a new, useful Teams' app is coming very soon

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft confirms a new, useful Teams' app is coming very soon by Sayan Sen In the modern digital workspace meeting recordings and summaries are very commonplace, still finding the right recap later can be surprisingly difficult. To address that inconvenience Microsoft is working on a new dedicated meeting recap application designed to bring all meeting recaps into a single, centralized location. In a recent announcement on its Microsoft 365 roadmap website, the company has confirmed the new applet and has explained how the new experience will work and why it believes it can help users stay on top of discussions without having to search through multiple chats, calendars, or files. For those unfamiliar, meeting recaps provide a summary of key discussions, decisions, action items, and other relevant information generated after a meeting ends. They are intended to help participants revisit important points while also allowing those who missed the meeting to quickly catch up on what happened. Traditionally locating older recaps could require users to navigate through various conversations or meeting histories. The new meeting recap app aims to simplify that process by gathering all available recaps into one dedicated hub. According to Microsoft, this should make it easier to browse past meetings, review outcomes, and stay informed about ongoing projects and discussions. One notable feature of the applet is the addition of quick filters which are meant to allow users to instantly narrow down the list of available recaps and surface specific meetings without manually searching through extensive records. Audio recap is also there. If you're wondering how long these recaps will last before self-expiring, the app will provide access to meeting recaps from the past 30 days or approximately one month. You can view the feature entry here on the official Microsoft 365 (M365) website under roadmap ID 564614. Its rollout is set to begin this month (June 2026). Do keep in mind though that new feature rollouts often get delayed.
