nyt_games coordinator on HA 2026.10 aborts the whole refresh when the nyt account has wordle history but never played Connections. Connections returns last_played_print_date as "" and mashumaro refuses to parse last_completed as a date, so get_connections() kills the update before Wordle sensors load.

Field "last_completed" of type date in Connections has invalid value ''
 
looks like nyt_games 1.0.1 fixes the never played connections thing, the bump got merged into ha and its tagged for 2026.10.2 so wordle should stop dying with it once that patch drops
 
ha 2026.10.2 is out and it bumps nyt_games to 1.0.1, so the empty Connections last_completed crash should stop killing the refresh.
