{{quote|''"See if you can keep up with this string of complete illogical nonsense: In 1992, Disney released a [[Slobs Versus Snobs|slobs vs. snobs]] comedy about a pee wee hockey league called ''[[The Mighty Ducks (film)|The Mighty Ducks]]'', in which [[Ragtag Bunch of Misfits|a group of rag-tag kids]] came together under the guidance of Emilio Estevez.''
''"Then in 1993, Disney founded an actual professional hockey team that [[Cash Cow Franchise|they also named the Mighty Ducks]], and while you'd think they would've filled out the roster with a team of good-hearted but clumsy and disadvantaged youths, they went with the usual professional athletes.''

''"'''Then''' -- and this is where any kind of logic breaks down -- they made an animated series in 1996 called The Mighty Ducks, and despite the fact that they were still making live-action movies, the animated series was about a group of hockey-playing, crime-fighting anthropomorphic ducks that were led by a duck named [[Awesome McCoolname|WILDWING FLASHBLADE]]. Wildwing. F---ing. Flashblade. And for bonus points, he was voiced by Ian Zeiring."''|Comics Alliance, in a review of [http://www.comicsalliance.com/2011/02/01/the-ten-most-insane-characters-from-stan-lees-nhl-guardians/ a totally different series about hockey-playing superheroes]}}
'''''The Mighty Ducks''''' animated series was, to put it gently, [[Shocking Swerve|rather a surprise for viewers expecting a comedy series about misfit kids playing hockey]]. This animated series lasted from September, 1996 to January, 1997.
It was instead about (sit down for this) a team of [[Animal Superheroes|super-powered]] [[Petting Zoo People|anthropomorphic]] '''ducks''' who fight aliens with hockey-themed gadgets. Yes, somewhere in space there were two dinosaur-derived races. Interestingly, the race descended from Ceratopsians, led by [[Big Bad|Lord Dragaunus]], were evil and the Therapod (well, more specifically, duck) descended race was good. By an incredible coincidence, the Ducks' entire culture was based upon hockey.

Despite being ducks created by Disney, they are not [[The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck|part of the Disney Duck Canon]]. One would be intrigued to see Scrooge's reaction to these guys...

* [[Abnormal Ammo]]: ''Explosive'' hockey pucks.
* [[The Ace]]: The Ducks' original leader, Canard, to some extent- though even he can't get a puck past Wildwing the goalie.
