If the team is sold, what do you think the new owners will rename it?

part of the rumored terms of agreement that the new owners have to go through include keeping the team in Anaheim and playing at the Pond as well as keeping the name.
The name "Mighty Ducks" is copyrighted to Disney, so even after selling the team, Disney would make money off the commission of anything with the Ducks on it.

My hope is just get rid of the adjective. Anaheim Ducks would be fine. No more Mighty Ducks of Anaheim.

Maybe they can name it "the OC." :)

Anyone living in So-Cal almost drowned in their car last night? Boy, flash flood is the last thing I would ever imagine happen in Orange County.

I can't imagine a big wreck like Theo drinking Bud, or any American beer for that matter.

Yeah, Anaheim will always remian the Mighty Ducks, because Disney copywrited it, and will get profits as long as they remain the Mighty Ducks, like Forbesy said. And if they're gonna sell the team to anyone, they'll make sure they remain the Mighty Ducks.

I highly doubt anyone would take a deal in which they would pay Disney for the right to use "Mighty Ducks". At least, the "Mighty" will be dropped. Disney has not been right for years, and if they are trying to sell the team with the thought of making a profit on the name then those guys need to put the hippie lettuce down.

If someone agrees to that, then they have serious thrill issues. :)

It was the only well placed picture of a beer that I could find at the time
