The Anaheim Ducks were founded as an expansion franchise in 1993 by The Walt Disney Company and originally named the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim with the name taking inspiration from the 1992 Walt Disney movie The Mighty Ducks. The team was sold in 2005 and a year later was rebranded as the Anaheim Ducks. Following the name and ownership change, the team found quick success with a trip to the Western Conference Final in 2006 and a Stanley Cup championship in 2007, which remains the franchise’s only championship.
