Anaheim Mighty Ducks
The Anaheim Ducks are a professional men's ice hockey team based in Anaheim, California, USA. They are members of the Pacific Division of the Western Conference of the National Hockey League (NHL). The Ducks are the current Stanley Cup champions. Since their inception, the Ducks have played their home games at Honda Center.

The club was founded in 1993 by The Walt Disney Company as the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim, a name based on the film The Mighty Ducks. Disney sold the franchise in 2005, which changed the name of the team to Anaheim Ducks. In their 14 year existence, the Ducks have made the playoffs five times, winning two Western Conference Championships (2003 and 2007) and one Stanley Cup (2007).

With their first-ever draft pick, the Mighty Ducks selected Paul Kariya fourth overall in the 1993 NHL Entry Draft. Kariya quickly became a fan favorite and the cornerstone of the young Mighty Ducks franchise. As team captain, he brought them within a game of Stanley Cup glory in 2003.

On February 7, 1996, the Mighty Ducks made a blockbuster deal with the Winnipeg Jets. The Ducks sent Chad Kilger, Oleg Tverdovsky, and a third-round pick to the Jets in return for Marc Chouinard, a fourth-round draft pick, and, most notably, star right winger Teemu Selanne. Selanne's arrival helped the Ducks make the playoffs for the first time. On a line with Steve Rucchin and Kariya, his chemistry with the latter made them one of the highest-scoring tandems in the league.

After missing the playoffs in their first three seasons, the Mighty Ducks finished 1996-97 fourth in the Western Conference, earning home-ice advantage for a first-round playoff series with the Phoenix Coyotes. However, Anaheim was swept by the eventual Stanley Cup champion Detroit Red Wings in the second round. Even though Detroit officially swept the Ducks, every game was close in the series. Three games went into overtime, including one that went into double overtime, and one that went into triple overtime. After a disappointing 1997-98 season, the 1998-99 NHL season saw the Ducks once again contending for the playoffs. But a late season cold streak dropped the Ducks to sixth seed and had face the third seed Red Wings, whom they did not play well against. Once again, the Ducks lost in four to the Red Wings, this time in a more convincing manner than in 1997 ending with a 3-0 loss on home ice, this time in the Western Quarterfinals.

On July 3, 2006, the Ducks traded young sniper Lupul, defenseman prospect Ladislav Smid, a 2007 first-round draft pick, a second-round choice in 2008, and a conditional first-round selection in 2008 to the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for star defenseman Chris Pronger.

Picked by some publications as a favorite to win the Cup, the Ducks started the 2006 to 2007 season on fire. On November 9, 2006, the Ducks defeated the Vancouver Canucks 6-0 at General Motors Place in Vancouver, British Columbia to improve their season record to 12-0-4. The win set an NHL open era record by remaining undefeated in regulation for the first 16 games of the season, eclipsing the previous mark set by the 1983 to 1984 Edmonton Oilers. On December 12, the Ducks defeated the Florida Panthers on the road 5-4. They broke a franchise record for their sixth road win in a row. No team having played 33 games had reached 54 points since the 1979 Philadelphia Flyers.

On January 16, 2007 the Ducks played in their franchise's 1000th regular season game, and on March 11, the Ducks recorded their franchise's 1000th point with a 4-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks. On April 7, the Ducks won their first Pacific Division title in franchise history, when the Vancouver Canucks defeated the second-place San Jose Sharks at HP Pavilion in the Sharks' final game of the season. Anaheim also played their last game of the 2006-07 NHL season that day against the Columbus Blue Jackets.

In the Western Conference quarter finals, the Ducks once again met the Minnesota Wild and defeated them 4 games to 1. They faced the Red Wings in the Western Conference Finals, winning 4 games to 2. A 4-3 win on May 22 at Honda Center gave the Ducks their second Western Conference title, and placed them in the Stanley Cup Finals for the second time. The Ducks became the first California team and the first west coast team since the 1925 Victoria Cougars to win the Stanley Cup.

The drama surrounding Scott Niedermayer brought positive news for the Ducks, as GM Brian Burke declared he would return, as said in a press conference held prior to a game between the Ducks and the Buffalo Sabres on December 5th. December 14, 2007 marked an important event in Ducks history, as Brian Burke dealt winger Andy McDonald to the St. Louis Blues in exchange for Doug Weight, Michal Birner, and draft picks in order to clear salary cap issues. The trade brought mixed reactions from fans and players alike. On December 16, 2007 Niedermayer made his return to Anaheim, playing his first game back with the team.
