Jedi 1,865 Report post Posted October 20, 2010 Yep, bad idea. Next! Btw, what's on the shoulder patch? The old logo, with the new colors. I know it's tiny, but it's the best I could easily find. What I'm trying to figure out is what these new logos have to do with a duck? Looks more like a "D" or a flying comet, in which case, Anaheim Comets? Anaheim Dorks? It's a "D" (for Ducks) that is shaped like a Duck's foot, while trying to look mean/hip/cool/aggressive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest mindfly Report post Posted October 20, 2010 Are there lots of ducks in anaheim? Alot of team's have more logical choices of a logo... wings' with the winged wheel representing motor city for instance... hmmm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Shoreline Report post Posted October 20, 2010 (edited) I guess that makes some sense. I kinda like their jerseys just not in the Halloween colors. Old purple or purple and green would be better. Admittedly, I kinda wish their shoulder patch and logo were switched around to better represent their team. Edit: And yes, mindfly, there are a lot of Duck species in California, but especially the Socal and upper Norcal regions. Since you've only followed hockey for a few years (as in close to your forum join date -- it's obvious the more you post), I'll let you in on a secret about the Ducks. They got their name from a Disney movie. Edited October 20, 2010 by Shoreline Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When Disney sold the team, the new owners quasi-renamed/rebranded the franchise to the Anaheim Ducks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Shoreline Report post Posted October 20, 2010 I gotta listen to some music before titanium gets that @#%ing Duck Tales song stuck in my head the entire time I'm at work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
titanium2 867 Report post Posted October 20, 2010 That song will be in my head for the rest of the day. Oh I miss my childhood dayz. Why don't they just change the team name? What's Anaheim known for? Tourist business right? So... Anaheim Tourists? Yeah that sucks too. I don't know. But I look at that logo and I think, "Why aren't they trying to go for the classic, time-tested quality that's within the logos of the Red Wings, Maple Leafs, etc.?

Guest Shoreline Report post Posted October 20, 2010 I've seen the mighty ducks film's with emilio estevez etc but how the f*ck can they name an nhl team after a movie...geeeeeeze It's been almost 20 years. If you've been a fan this long and even seen the movies with the very same logo the Ducks had for years it shouldn't be that surprising in 2010. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

achildr1 255 Report post Posted October 20, 2010 Yeah, I don't know what to think about that old logo patch. Reminds me of when the Mighty Ducks went to college or prep school or whatever it was. D3! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zata40 3 Report post Posted October 20, 2010 The more I think about the jersey the more I think it cold be so much worse. It could have been a bright orange jersey with ugly strips. Though I wouldn't mind seeing their normal jersey with the D on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joshy207 156 Report post Posted October 21, 2010 I don't mind the duckfoot D as the primary logo, it's less busy than the "Ducks" one. But the striping sucks! I'm sick of the Reebok template jerseys, they're horrible looking. If it wasn't worn in the 80s or before, it's usually crap. I'm glad to see so many teams going back to, or at least adding a third resembling, their old-school unis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ACallToArms 270 Report post Posted October 21, 2010 (edited) Pay homage to the original Ducks jersey (Thank you Mr. Ducksworth) and keep within the boundaries of the reebok template. I think the reason they can't use their original logo is because Disney owns it. When they sold the team, they kept the rights to the name and logo, hence why they're just the Ducks now. As for the new jersey, it looks like the Ducks' and Flyers' jerseys hooked up after a night of drinking, and this was the result...

The team was bought therefore the rights to that logo were also bought. The only reason they changed everything was to create a new identity and because the majority of Ducks fans wanted a change.
