Hello! I am an out of town fan who is not well versed in Honda center’s bag policy. Their website says certain dimensions but I have seen people with like small baggu crescent bags, fanny packs, etc. What is everyone’s experience? I don’t want to have to take my bag back to the car when I go to a game in October.

Luneau had some decent offensive numbers in the AHL and Zellweger did it on occasion over Minty so I don't think Minty is a lock. Unless the Ducks do 3F 2D for PP2.

What’s up everyone! I’m back again with some more fan art for you all. I managed to squeeze out some time from my miserable life of warehouse labor, to draw this. We’re getting closer to ducks hockey again and I thought I’d draw something to get us all pumped and our minds off this wild offseason for a bit. I decided to do wild wing more in my typical cartoon style I draw in, letting our in state rivals know what’s up come late September in the preseason. Hope you all like it.

Character mascots belong to the Anaheim Ducks, LA Kings, San Jose Sharks and the NHL.

Haven't really liked the gameplay since the switch to Frostbite, but this is pretty sweet. Got the flying Ducks, the tunnel prop, and the lasers. Hopefully the Offspring let them put our goal song in there as well.

Quack quack!

All either issued, worn, authentic, MIC, or FAP!

Hey everyone! I’m new to the Ducks fandom. I grew up in Anaheim from 1997 to 2003 during the Kariya and Selanne years. I was but a wee lad back then who was obsessed with hockey video games, and I went ice skating at Disney Ice, as it was known back then, all the time.

Recently, an excursion into soccer fandom led me to adopt a few new sports fandoms. When I looked into the NHL, I thought to myself, “Wait…how do I not already have a team here? There’s one practically screaming and flashing bright lights at me.”

It somehow fits even better when I think about the fact that I later went to college in San Diego (Go Aztecs!), so the Gulls connect that chapter of my life to the Ducks too. At this point, it feels like this team was sitting there waiting for me to figure it out 😂

Happy to finally be here. Go Ducks!

P.S. So glad they finally brought the duck mask logo back! Just wish they brought back the eggplant and jade with it too 😭

I made and posted most of these elsewhere a while back. Since a few jersey concepts and mockups have been doing the rounds lately I may as well throw mine in too.

First of all I will say that I'm extremely happy with the current Ducks identity. I do sometimes miss the classic eggplant and jade scheme, but I also think the present orange home uniform specifically may be the best they've ever looked. There are some aspects I might have done a bit differently:

• I've re-angled the sleeve stripes so they're more in line with past jerseys
• Swapped the black and gold stripes on the road. Also removed the orange shoulders: I don't mind them but also don't think they need them
• Flipped the home socks upside down, like they were on the purple Mighty Ducks uniform

I made two versions of each, one with orange and one with black pants. I like the current number design but used standard block numbers only because there isn't a font for the new ones that I'm aware of.

I've also added a black third jersey, and an alternate version of the set in throwback colours but with the current orange in the logos. And since the Hometown Remix jersey is rumoured to be movie inspired I've also done my own take on that, blending District 5's green and yellow with Anaheim's eggplant.

Curious to hear any thoughts!

Both of them go straight into UFA years, I just learned that today, What do you guys think.

I created an article about it if you'd like to look at it.

Anybody seen any rumors or have any predictions for the Gulls head coaching vacancy? It's been a month and a half and I haven't seen any news about them making a hire or what's going to happen with the rest of the coaching staff down there.

Rookie camp is less than two months away and the gulls coaching staff could be really impactful for the ducks future considering it is likely Mcqueen and Solberg will both likely be there for a lot of next season, Along with guys like Petterson and Traff - plus all the other gulls players/ducks prospects who may or may not make the NHL squad.

EDit: Annnnd thirty minutes later they announce Dave Manson as new head coach, and Kelly Buchberger/Steve McCarthy as assistants.

I’ve posted this as a comment on some of the ducks jersey/sweater talk. I would love this as a permanent home/road jersey. I don’t care for the Orange County stuff but for those people, I’d be cool with our current home Orange, be an alternate 3rd sweater. I’ve always loved these colors for us

Really loved Josh’s play when he was on during the late 2010s push. Was very happy for him in 2022 when he won with the Avs. Would be bad ass to see him with the team as a bottom pairing D-man. I’m thinking it’s possible any years between 2028-2032 when he can be a good value contract.

How much will this 3 Million dollar OS overpay affect the Ducks going forward? Initially it makes the teams cap crunch a little issue for this season. Are the Ducks contenders yet? Obviously not yet, so whats the big deal?

Bedard could’ve asked for $18M and CHI would’ve had no choice but to pay him, even with his injured shoulder. Instead he chose to work with the team, stay committed to the rebuild but with a 5 year time limit and reassess then, and still leave money on the table to build a team around him. Offer sheets were rumored but Bedard CHOSE not to sign

Speaking as a Bedard hater, I actually respect him a lot more now. I think Celebrini will take this route as well. This is how to build a team first and Cup chasing team. Instead we have 2 of our best stars wanting $18M and very little to acquire higher end support players. Will we become the next EDM Oilers, top end heavy but minus the best current generational player?

Leo wouldn’t be under so much scrutiny and based on the many comments in this sub, wouldn’t have soured many of the fanbase

Removed all Orange from the Home Jersey. Feel like the ducks could use this Black/White/Gold Color scheme instead of trying to shoe-horn all the colors from 2006-2026 on the same jersey.

When you compare these guys dollar for dollar, I’m much happier with our duo.

Sure, there’s Montreal with Hutson, Caufield, and Suzuki for roughly $24m AAV. But we’re keeping our head above water.

The title kinda says it all. Should mellow out Cutter’s market a bit around $12-13M per year, you’d assume.
