Footnotes

The Ducks introduced a “new” jersey prior to the 2024-25 season, giving a nod to the franchise’s original logo of the duck-billed goalie mask. The rebrand comes on the heels of the Ducks’ sixth straight losing season, likely with the hopes of retaining fan interest and driving increased merchandise sales.
