Question No. 3: A lot of people would love to see the Ducks go back to their old retro jerseys with the hockey mask and crossed sticks. Do Ducks’ fans feel the same way?

"A: “Many fans would welcome the return of the Mighty Ducks logo (and the jade and eggplant color scheme as well). How feasible that is as a full-time option, I’m not sure. Team owners Henry and Susan Samueli seem pretty intent on pushing the orange theme—Orange County and all—and the addition of oCV!be in 2024 will only add to the orange emphasis.”"

Unfortunately, for hockey fans as a whole, it doesn’t sound like the Anaheim Ducks will be donning the jade and eggplant Mighty Ducks jerseys full-time. The heavy lean into Orange County sounds like it is only to become more evident with the addition of the OCV!BE community that will be installed, centralized around the Honda Center, the home ice arena of the Anaheim Ducks.
