  • Player profiles now include NHL profile and player search links. Choose Google, DuckDuckGo, or Bing for player searches in Settings.

  • Missing fantasy values, including Draft Value, sort to the bottom in either direction and display as "-" rather than a misleading zero. Calculated zero values remain visible as zero.

v0.1.2Sep 15, 2026
