1993-2004: The Disney Era

The Mighty Ducks of Anaheim were founded in 1993 by The Walt Disney Company. The team's original name was chosen from the Disney movie The Mighty Ducks, based on a group of misfit kids who turn their losing youth hockey team into a winning team. Disney subsequently made an animated series called Mighty Ducks, featuring a fictional Mighty Ducks of Anaheim team that consisted of anthropomorphized ducks led by the mighty duck Wildwing. The team was the first tenant of Arrowhead Pond (now Honda Center), a brand-new arena in Anaheim located a short distance east of Disneyland and across the Orange Freeway from Angel Stadium.

The Ducks sent Chad Kilger, Oleg Tverdovsky, and a third-round pick to the Jets in return for Marc Chouinard, a fourth-round draft pick, and, most notably, star right winger Teemu Selanne.

After missing the playoffs in their first three seasons, the Mighty Ducks finished 1996-97 fourth in the Western Conference, earning home-ice advantage for a first-round playoff series with the Phoenix Coyotes. The Coyotes initially took a series 3-2 lead, but the Ducks won the last two including Game 7 at home to win their inaugural playoff series. However, Anaheim was swept by the eventual Stanley Cup champion Detroit Red Wings in the second round. Even though Detroit officially swept the Ducks, every game was close in the series. Three games went into overtime, including one that went into double overtime, and one that went into triple overtime. After a disappointing 1997-98 season, The Ducks returned to the playoffs in 1998-99, but once again lost in four to the Red Wings in a more convincing manner than in 1997 ending with a 3-0 loss on home ice, this time in the Western Quarterfinals.

After a three-year playoff hiatus, Anaheim qualified for the 2003 Stanley Cup Playoffs. For the third straight post-season in which they participated, the Mighty Ducks met the defending Stanley Cup champion Red Wings. This time, however, Anaheim swept Detroit in the series with Rucchin's series-clincher on Curtis Joseph coming in overtime of Game 4. The Ducks would then defeat the #1-seeded Dallas Stars in six games in the Conference Semifinals and make quick work of the upstart Minnesota Wild (only allowing one goal) in the Western Conference Final to earn their first-ever Western Conference championship and berth in the Stanley Cup Finals.

The 2003 Stanley Cup Finals against the New Jersey Devils was a battle between two elite goaltenders, Martin Brodeur for New Jersey and Jean Sebastien Giguere for Anaheim. Quite possibly the most remembered moment of the series, Game 6 saw Paul Kariya on the wrong side of a fierce body check from New Jersey captain Scott Stevens. Kariya was knocked out and sent to the dressing room. But eleven minutes later, Kariya returned from the dressing room and scored to help the Ducks tie the series at three games apiece. Anaheim could not complete their Cinderella run, though, as they lost a hard-fought Stanley Cup Final in seven games to the Devils. For his fine play during the post-season, Ducks goaltender Jean Sebastien Giguere won the Conn Smythe Trophy as Most Valuable Player of the playoffs. He became only the fifth player, and fourth goaltender, in NHL history to have won the trophy as a member of the losing team. // The New Jersey Devils were in the Finals for their fourth time after defeating the Boston Bruins and Tampa Bay Lightning in five games, and beating the Ottawa Senators in the Eastern Conference Finals in seven games. ...

During the summer of 2004, as the NHL and the NHL Players Association's labor dispute was headed towards a long lockout, Disney tried to sell the team but received a low offer of $40-million US, less than the franchise's original price. In 2005, Broadcom co-founder Henry Samueli of Irvine, California and his wife, Susan, bought the Mighty Ducks from The Walt Disney Company for a reported $75 million (USD). The Samuelis have pledged to keep the team in Anaheim, much as Arturo Moreno did when he purchased the Anaheim Angels from Disney.

On August 1, 2005, former Norris Trophy-winning defenseman Randy Carlyle was hired as the seventh coach in team history. Burke was familiar with Carlyle's coaching ability, as the latter had coached the Manitoba Moose from 1996–2001 (International Hockey League) and 2004–05 (American Hockey League); the Moose had been the Canucks' farm club since 2001. Carlyle replaced Mike Babcock, who left the Ducks to coach the Red Wings. Also during that summer, the Mighty Ducks brought back former star and fan favorite Teemu Selanne, and made their first big free-agency splash under Burke when he signed defenseman Scott Niedermayer, the 2004 Norris Trophy winner and older brother of Ducks forward Rob, to a four-year contract, from New Jersey. is the 213th day of the year (214th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

The 2005-06 season saw the Ducks trade away big-name players with big contracts such as Petr Sykora and Sergei Fedorov in favor of younger players such as Ryan Getzlaf, Corey Perry, Chris Kunitz, and Joffrey Lupul. The Ducks had a rough start to season, but the plan was ultimately successful; the Ducks became one of the best teams in the league down the stretch and ended up the sixth seed in the West. In an interesting playoff where the bottom 4 seeds knocked off the top 4 seeds, The Ducks beat the heavily favored Calgary Flames in seven games and Colorado Avalanche in a sweep on a run through the playoffs, only to be stopped in the conference finals by the Edmonton Oilers in five games, who had swept the Ducks in the regular season series. The team banked on its youth again, seeing Lupul, Getzlaf, Kunitz, and Ilya Bryzgalov turn in stellar performances.

Picked by some publications as a favorite to win the Cup[1], the Ducks started the 2006–07 season on fire. On November 9, 2006, the Ducks defeated the Vancouver Canucks 6-0 at General Motors Place in Vancouver, British Columbia to improve their season record to 12-0-4. The win set an NHL open era record by remaining undefeated in regulation for the first 16 games of the season, eclipsing the previous mark set by the 1983–84 Edmonton Oilers. They were subsequently shut out by the Flames the following game, 3-0, ending their streak. On December 12, the Ducks defeated the Florida Panthers on the road 5-4. They broke a franchise record for their sixth road win in a row. They also improved their record that night to 24-3-6 and 54 points.

In the Western Conference quarter finals, the Ducks once again met the Minnesota Wild and defeated them 4 games to 1. Next up was the Vancouver Canucks, the Northwest Division champions, whom they also defeated 4 games to 1. They faced the Red Wings in the Western Conference Finals, winning 4 games to 2. A 4-3 win on May 22 at Honda Center gave the Ducks their second Western Conference title, and placed them in the Stanley Cup Finals for the second time. This time, they faced off against the Ottawa Senators, and on June 6, the Ducks defeated the Senators 6-2 at Honda Center to claim their first Stanley Cup in franchise history.

The playoffs came with much controversy, though, with a Ducks player being suspended from play in three of the four rounds. Chris Pronger was suspended for one game twice; once against the Detroit Red Wings for checking Tomas Holmstrom high, and then once more for elbowing Dean McAmmond of the Ottawa Senators in the Final. Brad May was suspended for two games in the series against the Minnesota Wild for punching and knocking out Kim Johnsson without reason. Also, in game five against the Vancouver Canucks, immediately prior to Scott Niedermeyer's OT game and series winning goal, Canuck winger Jannick Hansen had been stripped of the puck, having been elbowed by Chris Pronger and tripped by Rob Niedermeyer. Despite a protest from Canuck goaltender Roberto Luongo, the goal stood, to the ire of many Vancouver fans.

After winning the Stanley Cup, two star players, defenseman Scott Niedermayer and right winger Teemu Selanne were pondering retirement. Burke was active in the Free Agent market signing two veteran players in high scoring defenseman Mathieu Schneider and gritty forward Todd Bertuzzi to 2 year contracts to replace Niedermayer and Selanne if they were to retire. Later on, Oilers GM Kevin Lowe signed Dustin Penner to an offer sheet that would pay him 4.25 million a year over the next five. Burke called out Lowe, saying 'it was a classless move made by a desperate GM trying to save his job.'[citation needed] He did not match the offer. In return, the Ducks have gotten the Oiler's 1st, 2nd and 3rd round draft picks. Later this summer he signed backup defenseman Joe DiPenta to a one year contract along with re-signing the gritty team leader Brad May. Recently the Ducks let back up goalie Ilya Bryzgalov go to waivers, where he was picked up by the Phoniex Coyotes. On November 23, 2007 Bryzgalov made his first start of the 2007 season against the Ducks. During a break in play a P.A. announcement was made and a video package was played celebrating Bryzgalov's career in Anaheim, noting his remarkable shut-out streak during the 2006 playoffs. Bryzgalov received a positive loud ovation and acknowledged the fans in attendance for their support. Mathieu Schneider (June 12, 1969) is an American professional ice hockey defenseman. ...

Team colors and mascot

Logos

The Ducks' logo features a webbed foot forming a "D" followed by the other letters in the word "Ducks" in upper-case letters. The text itself is gold (which sometimes may appear as bronze as well) with orange and black accents (forming a three dimensional appearance). The entire logo is in turn outlined by white. The city of Anaheim's name appears in smaller upper-case print, above the team name. The Ducks are one of three NHL teams to feature their team name spelled out in a scripted form on the front of their jersey rather than a logo. The New York Rangers and the Washington Capitals are the other two. This does not include alternate jerseys or throwback jerseys worn by other teams.

The old logo of the Ducks prior to the name change featured an old-style goaltender mask, shaped to form the appearance of a duck bill. Behind the mask are two intersecting hockey sticks, a black circle and a triangle (the color of the triangle is either green or gray, depending on how the logo is used).


Jerseys

The Ducks have officially worn two unique regular jerseys and three unique third jerseys in their franchise history:


Original Mighty Ducks Jerseys

Mighty Ducks of Anaheim jerseys: 1993-2006.
Mighty Ducks of Anaheim jerseys: 1993-2006.

The original jerseys of the Ducks (then the Mighty Ducks) used jade, aubergine (eggplant), white and gray as primary colors for both the home and away jerseys. The team's dark jerseys were dominantly eggplant in color with diagonal gray and white stripes; the jersey is jade below the stripes, which appear on the arms and waist. The white jerseys were similar, except that the eggplant is replaced mainly with white. On the shoulders of both jerseys are patches featuring a forward-facing version of the main logo's "duck mask," surrounded by a circle reading "Mighty Ducks of Anaheim."

Anaheim Ducks jerseys: 2006-2007.

About a year after the team was purchased from the Walt Disney Company by the Samuelis, Brian Burke initiated a name change dropping the "Mighty", after consultation with the fans showed that the typical fan had a willingness to update the "Mighty Ducks" name and jersey and also a desire to keep part of the traditions of the franchise. Burke sought inspiration for the jersey from the United States Military Academy[citation needed], ending up with diagonal gold, white, black and orange stripes down the arms and waist with the word "Ducks" on the front. The jersey is similar to the team's most recent third jersey prior to the name change. The orange pays tribute to Orange County[2], where Anaheim is located.

2007-08 Jerseys

For the 2007-08 NHL season, the Ducks, like all NHL teams, changed over to new Rbk Edge jerseys. The new jersey shows only minor modifications from 2006-07, including a small NHL crest just below the neck. There are no third jerseys for this season. It has been rumored, but not confirmed over whether the Ducks will unveil a uniform shoulder patch, or a third jersey for the 2008-09 NHL season.[citation needed] A third jersey or alternate jersey is a sports teams alternate design for the previously established other two jerseys, the home and away outfits. ...

Third jerseys

The third jerseys of the Mighty Ducks were created in 1995, 1997, and 2003. The 1995 jersey was jade with eggplant and white stripes on the collar and on the end of the sleeves. The logo was of team mascot Wildwing wearing a Mighty Ducks jersey while breaking through a sheet of ice. The jersey was short-lived; because of much criticism, it was retired at the end of the year. A third jersey or alternate jersey is a sports teams alternate design for the previously established other two jerseys, the home and away outfits. ...

The 1997 third jersey came with a rare fourth jersey partner. The third was a jade-colored jersey with silver and eggplant stripes at the shoulders outlined in thin yellow, and a silver stripe at the bottom. It had the Mighty Ducks logo in the center of the chest. The fourth jersey was much like it. It was white with jade, eggplant, and silver stripes at the shoulders of the jersey, but no bottom stripe. These jerseys saw action until the end of 1999-2000, when they stopped playing with their third jerseys, and used only the fourth. At the end of 2000-01, the fourth was also retired.

The 2003 third jersey was black with purple and gray stripes at the waist and on the sleeves. It had the alternate script logo of the present Mighty Ducks and old-style laces at the neck, as well as a shoulder patch displaying an interlocking "MD" (for "Mighty Ducks"). The popularity of this jersey amongst fans was so great it replaced the eggplant and jade jersey, serving as the home jersey for the last half of the 2005-06 season and playoffs. It was dropped following the season as the team went to a modified name, new uniforms, and color scheme.


Mascot

The official mascot for the Anaheim Ducks is an anthropomorphized duck by the name of Wild Wing. He has been the team's mascot since its inaugural season, and his name was chosen through fan voting. He wears a Ducks jersey with the number 93 on the back, referring to the year the Ducks became an NHL team. 7th millennium BC anthropomorphized rocks, with slits for eyes, found in modern-day Israel. ...


He regularly descends from the rafters of the arena when making his in-game entrances.[3] In one such descent the rigging that lowered Wild Wing from the rafters malfunctioned leaving the mascot trapped fifty feet above the ice for several minutes. Another well known blunder occurred in October 1995 when Wild Wing, attempting to jump through a "wall of fire", accidentally tripped causing the mascot to land on the fire and set his costume on ablaze.[4]


His physical appearance is similar to the duck mask in the original Mighty Ducks logo. A bronze statue of Wild Wing is also located outside the team's arena, Honda Center.[5]


The mascot's name was also used for the leader of the Ducks, Wildwing Flashblade, in Disney's Mighty Ducks cartoon series. Disney may refer to: The Walt Disney Company and its divisions, including Walt Disney Pictures. ... Mighty Ducks is a half-hour Disney animated series aired on ABC and The Disney Afternoon in the fall of 1996. ...


During the same time in which the team announced a name change as well as change in jersey designs, there was an attempt by the team's owners to change or replace the mascot, Wild Wing, but was halted after a highly successful petition by fans.[citation needed]


Rivalries

Freeway Face-Off

Although there is no enmity between the city of Los Angeles and adjacent Orange County, the Los Angeles Kings and Anaheim Ducks share an on-ice rivalry due to geographic proximity.

As of 2006-07, the Kings and Ducks have never met in the playoffs, nor made the playoffs in the same year. The Ducks recent success in the playoffs, topped with the winning of the Stanley Cup in 2006-2007 has bolstered the loyalty of Anaheim's fan base, but the Kings fan base still remains intact with loyal fans.


During regular season (and, to some extent, pre-season) games, Kings fans arrive at Honda Center in numbers for away games against the Ducks, and vice-versa for Ducks fans at Staples Center, causing any goal by either team to be celebrated just as loud as if the home team scored. Chants in favor of either team are common. Games between the Southern California crosstown-rivals are often physical and fight-filled.

Ducks-Red Wings Rivalry

The rivalry between the Ducks and Detroit Red Wings has heated over the years, mainly because of meetings in the playoffs. The Ducks have faced Detroit more than any other team in the playoffs in their franchise history. The Detroit Red Wings are a professional ice hockey team based in Detroit, Michigan. ...


The Ducks and Red Wings became rivals during the 1997 NHL playoffs, when the two teams would meet in the Western Conference Semifinals. Detroit swept the Ducks in four very close games, three of which that went into overtime. Detroit would sweep Anaheim again in the first round of the 1999 Playoffs, this time in a more convincing manner.


The two teams would not meet in the playoffs again until the 2003 Playoffs. The Red Wings were the heavy favorite as they were the defending Stanley Cup champions. This time the Ducks shocked the hockey world as they swept the Red Wings in a four-game upset. The Ducks' defeat of the Wings' in the '03 playoffs would set a tone between the two teams. The 2002-03 NHL season was the 86th regular season of the National Hockey League. ...


In the 2007 Western Conference Finals, the Ducks would rally from a 2-1 series deficit, and overcame the absence of Chris Pronger, who was suspended for one game, due to his elbow to the head on Tomas Holmstrom of Detroit in Game 3. Many feel the turning point of this series was the Ducks' 5-3 win over Detroit in Game 4. Game 5 saw Detroit ahead 1-0 and dominate the Ducks for over 59 minutes of play, until Anaheim finally tied the game with under a minute to go in play, and sent it into overtime. The Ducks capitalized on the shocker and won with an overtime goal from Teemu Selanne, who stole the puck off a turnover in front of a sprawling Dominik Hasek. This rallied the Ducks to defeat the Wings in Game 6 and win the series.
