Press Release Summary: Watch The Game With Mighty Ducks Of Anaheim Tickets

Press Release Body: The Anaheim Ducks were originally called the Mighty Ducks of
Anaheim. They are a professional men ice hockey team based in Anaheim, California.
They are members of the Pacific Division of the Western Conference of the National
Hockey League (NHL). Within a short span, they have shown fantastic results and are
the current Stanley Cup champions, after defeating the Ottawa Senators in five games
post-season. The Ducks have always played their home games at Honda Center, formerly
called Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim.

The Walt Disney Company formed the Anaheim Ducks in 1991. The original name was
given after the film, The Mighty Ducks. This movie showed a group of teens winning a
hockey game successfully. Disney sold the franchise to Henry and Susan Samueli in
2005, which changed the name to Anaheim Ducks. In their 14 years play, the Ducks
have made the playoffs five times, won two Western Conference Championships (2003
and 2007), and one Stanley Cup, 2007.

The logo is a webbed foot forming a ?D? followed by the other letters of the word
?Ducks? in capitals. The text is in gold with orange and black accents, giving a
three dimensional appearance. The entire logo is encircled with white. The old logo,
before the name changed, was an old style goaltender mask, giving the appearance of
a duckbill.

Jerseys

The old jerseys used jade, aubergine (eggplant), white and gray as primary colors.
After the team was purchased from the Walt Disney Company, Brian Burke sought
inspiration from the United States Military Academy, and gave the jersey diagonal
gold, white, black, and orange stripes down the arms and waist, with the word
?Ducks? on the front. The orange color pays tribute to Orange County, where Anaheim
is located.

The 2007-08 jerseys, like all NHL teams, changed over to the new Reebok Edge
jerseys. There is only a minor change with a small NHL crest below the neck. The
official mascot for the Ducks is an anthropomorphized duck by the name of Wild Wing.
He wears a Ducks jersey with 93 on the back, the year the Ducks became the NHL team.


In July, the Ducks traded young sniper Lupul, defenseman Ladislav Smid, a 2007 first
round draft pick, and a second round pick in 2008, to Edmonton in exchange for the
famous defenseman Chris Pronger. The team finished the last season with 43 wins, 27
losses, and 12 overtime losses. They became third in their division. In the
playoffs, they won over the Flames in conference quarterfinals and over Avalanche in
the semifinals, but were defeated by the Oilers in the finals. They had a fantastic
year in 2006-07, beating the Ottawa Senators to take home the Stanley Cup. The team
now has new faces Todd Bertuzzi, Mathieu Schneider, Jean Sebastien Giguere and
Travis Moen.
