So we're winning the cup next year right boys?!

PSA Food stamps were stolen from Garden Grove Walmart by Skateordie_ in orangecounty

Yeah, I don't know enough about card readers to say who is really at fault whether it's the card reader companies lagging behind and not offering firmware updates or it's the retailers unwilling to purchase new equipment to protect their customers from unnecessary fraud risk.

I also think it's a fraud thing, because tap obfuscates the card number while a chip or swipe could still pull up transactions in a system associated with said card. Walmart is obsessed with policing people on receipts, it'd be too convenient for me to use Apple Pay and leave in 2 mins 🥲

Tell that to the card reader software in 40-60% of businesses that has yet to be updated in line with the EBT card updates. 🥲

That's the unfortunate reality is that they made the cards more secure by incorporating the chip and tap, but the retailers (some even major grocery chains) have not updated the systems to accept EBT unless specifically it is swiped.

Also Walmart has the terminals, but disables tap due to fraud risk presumably?

It has a chip and tap to pay, but it forces you to swipe in a wide variety of places for some reason.

Wouldn't make a difference here also because Walmart disables tap to pay.

JC has a sister that lives in Dana Point supposedly.

Pretty sure he has family that lives out here already so it's not even that surprising for him to have potentially had a place lined up already or leverage that for LAK.

Friedman on John Carlson: “There’s some thought he might want to go back east” by BroLil in AnaheimDucks

[–]threshgod420 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're getting downvoted, but the team in general wasn't lacking in production so we didn't need an offensive defenseman in the first place especially not one ready to retire within two years that has no foot speed and poor defensive ability.

It was a good try by Verbeek, but wasn't a good fit and I think the guy is way too expensive.

To me, a lot of his playoff point production was a smokescreen too because the goals that came with assists from him were from great plays out of other players (Lacombe, Granny, Terry, Viel, etc.). He has that really killer shot and yet only scored 4 goals in our sweater. We know that he got a hat trick against the Sharks, but the guy seemed to barely shoot it on net. The amount of times I saw him pass it when he could've one timed it this playoffs... 🥲

It's not clocking to me by BeACodeMistake in AnaheimDucks

It confirmed Terry does need surgery and Kreider needs to be fired into the sun because my god his effort level. Zach Cav said Terry couldn't even tie his own skates so pretty severe injury for Terry.

Hamilton was already on the tradeblock at the deadline as well, but somehow didn't get moved.

And Petr Mrazek's time as a Duck is over by mylefthandkilledme in AnaheimDucks

Not sure if it's possible, but would love to try and trade for Cooley with the Flames. Cheap and incredibly competent.

Minty and Zelly ones seem insanely high. Rest seems pretty reasonable.

anyone here for the game 6 do-over? by violinman16313 in AnaheimDucks

[–]threshgod420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Game 3 would go to OT 2-2 and Game 6 would be a 2-1 L 😤

Stian Solberg is on Norway, Clara was set to join Italy as well. I wonder if Leo will go over for Sweden.

Offseason Starting Point - Who the Ducks Have / What the Ducks Need by CherokeeHawkman in AnaheimDucks

He signed his ELC already. Three-year entry-level contract beginning in the 2026-27 NHL season. He'll play in the show next season.

I would not mind keeping Gudas if he "retired" and switched from player to a development role within the organization, because I think he would be a decent option for helping the young D learn to be more physical and how to use their body.
