# Talk:Anaheim Ducks

The logo might have a lot of gold, but the Ducks have been using orange as its primary color for a few years now, including on their jerseys, website, merchandise, etc. Shouldn't the infoboxes on this article also do the same? When you think about it, the infoboxes should be black and orange, not black and gold. 24.80.87.10 (talk) 07:04, 17 October 2019 (UTC)

According to the 2019–20 Ducks' media guide, its official colours are "Black and Gold with Orange and Silver Accents." The wording of that would imply that black and gold are the primary colours, and orange and black being accent/secondary colours. Leventio (talk) 07:40, 17 October 2019 (UTC)
Colours in team infoboxes are based on the various teams media guides. We go by their indication of what their colours are. -DJSasso (talk) 10:55, 17 October 2019 (UTC)

After being teased for a week prior, Adidas released their collection of Reverse Retro jerseys on November 16, 2020 for all 31 NHL teams. These jerseys are set to be worn sometime in 2021 when play resumes. Nick.b23 (talk) 14:08, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Bob Murray has been placed on leave, pending the results of an investigation. Jeff Soloman is interim GM. I'd think that should be reflected in the infobox - what say you guys?

Just added this section because I noticed that some other team's articles have this included. Thought it'd be helpful. Newstarwars07 (talk) 01:20, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

### Review
I will review this shortly. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 17:35, 13 August 2025 (UTC)
@HickoryOughtShirt?4 Is there an easy way to archive any link? Conyo14 (talk) 21:04, 14 August 2025 (UTC)
Click fix dead links in the External tools section of the page history. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 21:07, 14 August 2025 (UTC)
Conyo14 just because it times out, doesn't mean it didn't work. It says: If you encounter a page timeout, your request may still be processing. Please wait a bit and check if the bot has made an edit on your behalf. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 16:56, 15 August 2025 (UTC)
Conyo14, okay, this "bug" has persisted for a week and a bit now. I am going to archive the last few articles I have encountered that are dead manually than I will do a final overall review (but dw, it is likely I will just be able to pass this.) HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 23:02, 26 August 2025 (UTC)
Thank you. I've asked the talk page at IABot, but it has generated nothing. Conyo14 (talk) 01:36, 27 August 2025 (UTC)


### Start of a franchise (1993–1996)
Why is located a short distance east of Disneyland and across the Orange Freeway from Angel Stadium important to mention?  Done Removed mention
(optional) This may be a better reference for the Ron Wilson line.  Done replaced ref
The article says the Ducks finished the season 33–46–5, a record-breaking number of wins for an expansion team, which the Florida Panthers also achieved but the reference actually says the Panthers can do no better than tie it in their final game tonight. It doesn't say they tied it, only that they could.  Done Replaced ref
(optionsl) As well, I would add a link to the specific season you are referring to (eg. The Ducks finished the 1993–94 season)  Done Wiki-linked to season page
You cite Reference 11 twice back-to-back. You can just remove the reference after which the Florida Panthers also achieved since it is cited to the same source as the next sentence.
However, the reference doesn't say filled the Arrowhead Pond to 98.9% of its season capacity BUT ref #12 says this. Soooo just swap 11 for 12.  Done
Reference #14 doesn't say the Ducks played 48 games.  Done Removed mention of 48 games, kept 47 games as that is covered by the ref
(optional) I would also mention that Kariya was a finalist for the Calder  Done included statement and ref
(optional) Is there no more detail for the 1994-95 season? How were the ticket sales compared to their first year? Did they sell out again?  Not done Lockout-shortened season and not much to gleam from this season, aside from routine game recaps. I also decided not to include ticket sales, since after the first season, unless there is a significant drop, it feels unnecessary.


### Paul Kariya era (1996–2003)
Doesn't the Paul Kariya era technically start in 1994? For example, the Penguins article lists the "Crosby–Malkin era" as 2005 (their debut year).  Done Moved sections and renamed
Are two refs needed for the lines: The Ducks trailed 3–2 in the series going into Phoenix for game six. Kariya scored in overtime to force the franchise's first game seven, which they won?  Done One of them describes game six, the other game seven. I moved game six ref to be after the comma
Ref #26 doesn't say it was because he wanted to coach the Capitals. It says it was due to "philosophical differences."  Done Reworded
Ref #33 says the Ducks adopted the training camp slogan, “Take the next step". Was this an important philosophy used throughout the season (discussed in the media etc.)  Done Added in training camp motto, but doesn't seem significant after the start of the season, until it is mentioned in the final ref
Please wikilink Dallas Stars  Done Wikilinked
(optional) A footnote could be added to this statement Game one turned out to be the fourth-longest game in NHL history since it is no longer true [1].  Done Decided to remove the "fourth-longest" part as it is possible for it be broken again, and I'd rather not have to update this each time.
they were matched up against another Cinderella team is this important?  Done Removed that part of the statement


### New ownership, Selanne's return and franchise rebrand (2003–2008)
Wikilink Scott Niedermayer and his brother in their first mention  Done
goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov shined I don't think this follows MOS:PUFFERY  Done Reworded
in exchange for star defenseman Chris Pronger I don't think this follows MOS:PUFFERY  Done Removed "start"
NHL open era record what is an "open era"?  Done I'm not sure either
This can be a footnote: the record has since been broken by the Chicago Blackhawks' 21–0–3 start during the 2012–13 season  Done
the only player on the team who had previously won a Stanley Cup Why does this matter?  Done Removed interjection
without two fan favorites not needed, adds nothing  Done removed
De-wikilink Chris Pronger in the sentence Chris Pronger was also named captain with Niedermayer's absence  Done
Wikilink London  Done


### Bob Murray era (2008–2021)
De-wikilink Ryan Getzlaf in the sentence Ryan Getzlaf was named team captain  Done
would not help the Ducks can be worded less colloquially  Done Reworded
This seems out of order. Why is Another slow start (6–10–3) to the 2009–10 season would not help the Ducks mentioned after Ryan Getzlaf was named captain in 2010?  Done Moved to next paragraph
but would find their rhythm I think this wording violates MOS:EDITORIAL  Done Reworded
Corey Perry and Jonas Hiller represented the Ducks at the All-Star Game Wikilink the 2011 All-Star Game  Done
Even though the Ducks had a great season I think this wording violates MOS:EDITORIAL  Done Reworded
(optional) the team mourned the loss to the team commemorated the loss of former Mighty Duck Ruslan Salei. A team as a whole cannot mourn; it isn't a person.  Done Removed
the Ducks could not get out of the hole they dug themselves in the first half of the season likely violates MOS:CLICHE  Done Reworded/Removed
suffering a 6–1 mauling violates MOS:EDITORIAL. A hockey team can be mauled by a few things (bears, for example), but that is not a proper way to describe a loss.  Done Replaced with "rout", a sports term


### Team captains
I feel like you can just use this ref for team captains, instead of giving each person their own ref.


### Hall of Fame
These sentences are a bit awkward: Pronger also played one full season with team registering 31 goals and 34 assists. Pronger played three seasons with the team and won the Stanley Cup in 2007. Pronger provided 36 goals and 114 assists. I feel like these can be combined into two.  Done Reworded
Also, I don't consider playing 72/82 games not a full season. That implies that someone who plays 80/82 games didn't play "a full season." I think it's unnecessarily confusing to new people. I assumed he got traded or something.
As well, the reference doesn't say he won the Cup in 2007  Done Linked ref that was in prior statement.


### Broadcasters
Source needed for as well as KCOP for scheduling conflicts.  Done Moved reference after the statement and removed "scheduling conflicts"


### References
(option) You may wish to archive all your URLs ? I do not have this ability/don't know how to, if there is someone who can, please point me in the right direction.
The title for ref #12 should be "The NHL: Epilogue"  Done Removed ref as it didn't align with the title nor the dates
Ref #27 is missing its publisher (Tampa Bay Times)  Done
Ref #28 is missing its author (Michael Farber) and the publisher should be Sports Illustrated  Done
Ref #38 is missing its publisher (LA Times)  Done This was actually ref #39
Ref #210 needs to be archived because that will change in a year or so ? Similar to #1
Ref #252 needs author (David B. Wilkerson)  Done
Ref #161 needs author (Curtis Zupke)  Done
