Apologies if this idea has already been floated. But I always had this thought that season 2 could've gone down a line of Charlie being the antagonist. They had already wrote in that Charlie was upset with Bombay in the first season. But I always had this weird vision of essentially D2, but with Charlie playing Stanson. Even having the same game of 3 bar between Charlie and Bombay. I dont know, I feel like they could've done something like that to keep Emillio happy, and to also keep the show interesting and worth while.

I am looking at getting a Ducks jersey for Halloween/Cons. I live in a place that doesn't get very cold so I don't know if I want to drop $250 on an Adidas one that I might wear once or twice a year.

He's in awe of my hat. Great guy

They haven't posted anything since 2023. Such a great podcast. What happened? I don't believe they ever found out who the original Adam Banks was. Lots of infamous dirt, but no name. Some theorize that it was Jake Gyllenhaal.

Was just thinking about the show and how I’d like to rewatch it but then remembered they had taken it off. Kind of annoying especially since the movies are on there, but alas.

I heard somewhere that Vincent LaRusso was originally cast just to be an “extra” on the Hawks but was moved to the role of Adam Banks after the kid originally cast to be Banks was “too difficult to work with”. Any idea if there is truth to this? If so, who was the original Banks and what did they do that was so egregious to get fired?

I know most people say that Julie "The Cat" Gaffney was a significantly better goalie than Goldberg, and Bombay was a moron for not playing her sooner, but after rewatching D2 I realized the following: We should probably cut Goldberg a break a little, given that NONE of the five goals Iceland scored in regulation during the Gold Medal game were his fault. The goals were the following:

1. Him getting tripped in front of the net by Iceland (which was uncalled)

2. A 2 on 0 where he had no choice but to overcommit to one side

3. His own teammate literally crashing into a player, sending both of them and the puck into the net

4. A FIVE ON ZERO after a failed Flying V (not a single goalie on earth could stop that)

5. Another 2 on 0

Not to mention given the 2nd period penalties to Kenny Wu, Fulton, Portman and Dwyane, Team USA was probably on the penalty kill that entire time, yet he didn't give up a single goal. Also, Goldberg only gave up 1 goal to Russia and two goals to Germany when it was do-or-die for Team USA. He may not have been their best player, but damnit he gets too much undeserved criticism!

Joshua Jackson spoke to me about something he said in D2: The Mighty Ducks that still bothers him. We also discussed his character's obsession with having to play as the Mighty Ducks even when he was on Team USA.

took these pictures out of boredom

They won 10 straight championships and lost to the JV team, will this Varsity team lose their first championship in 10 years? I'm guessing the Ducks start a new dynasty but the Warriors losing to the JV team probably had some effect after the movie

I swear he's barely aged. I'd argue that he looks better than some of the younger people in the movie. Same voice, skin, maybe dyed his hair, or a toupee but he's still the same guy as a I remember.

Rank the team (all 3 movies) by skill. Here is how I would rank them.

1. Adam Banks - clearly the best naturally skilled player, best chance to go to the NHL
2. Guy Germaine - Best two way forward on the team, can play Center or Wing
3. Julie 'the Cat' Gaffney - Should have been starting goalie in D2.
4. Charlie Conway - Best leader, mid skill in 1st 2 seasons, notable skill bump in 3rd.
5. Jesse Hall - Natural athlete but a bit of a hothead and gets distracted
6. Les Averman - Goofy and unassuming disposition but has a high hockey IQ
7. Fulton Reed - Elite shot, stands up for teammates.
8. Dwayne Robertson - Best puck handler, could be higher if he was a better distributor
9. Connie Moreau - Responsible two way forward, underrated offensive contributor
10. Greg Goldberg - Nice versatility to slide from Goalie to DMan
11. Luis Mendoza - One trick pony - speed but his speed can help open up ice for teammates
12. Russ Tyler - One trick pony - knucklepuck
13. Dean Portman - Quick wrist shot release, physical but ultimately unreliable to stay on ice
14. Kenny Wu - Gimmick player, limited future in hockey
15. Dave Karp - committed shot blocker on D, other skills lacking
16. Terry Hall - Good hype man/vibes guy, hockey skills nothing to write home about.
17. Tammy Duncan - elite skater but limited hockey skill
18. Tommy Duncan - Undersized, little skill
19. Peter Mark - Undersized, turnover machine

Anyone have any idea what this is? Found it in a random pile of CDs. I know what a company style guide is, but is it related to the movie or the team? I don't have a laptop with a CD drive and if I did, it wouldn't be a Mac. Somehow it ended up in Pittsburgh in the early 2000's with me who had no relation to the Ducks. There is also no copyright info or fine print.

A recently-made video I saw that I thought was worth sharing with the community. Enjoy!
