Why Anaheim Ducks is stable
- Over 5 years (21-22 to 25-26): index 93.9 → 96.6, stable (+1.7 per season); improving: results and offense; slipping: the penalty kill and the power play.
- EV xGF/60: 2.79 → 2.62 (↓ 6.2%, worse)
- PP xGF/60: 7.45 → 7.76 (↑ 4.1%, better)
- PK xGA/60: 7.87 → 5.93 (↓ 24.6%, better)
- EV xG%: 50.4 % → 47.6 % (↓ 5.6%, worse)
- Roster: 5 key players rising, 0 declining, 12 stable.
- The progress comes mostly from the power play, while offense holds it back; the core is rising.
- Early season (7 games): the pulse rests mostly on the roster, and last season still weighs heavily in the rating this year.

A player's trend compares 2025-26 with 2024-25 (PAL, WAR per 60, SC, PA, DF, SK ratings, in percentile points) and adds age. Roster Trend weights each player by ice time and importance: a rising fourth line doesn't offset a declining top center.
The Anaheim Ducks story
Born as an expansion club for the 1993–94 season after the franchise was awarded on February 15, 1993, the team began life under the banner of the Walt Disney Company and the movie that inspired its original identity. Those early years established a distinct identity in Southern California and set the stage for a defining era that culminated in a first trip to the Stanley Cup Final in 2003 and a championship run in 2007.
Ownership changed hands in 2005 when the Samuelis took control and, together with then-general manager Brian Burke, steered a rebrand and course correction that reshaped the franchise’s ambitions. Today the club competes in the Pacific Division and plays home games at Honda Center while maintaining AHL and ECHL affiliations that feed its roster. The team remains focused on sustained competitiveness under experienced leadership behind the bench and across the roster.
Several figures have left an unmistakable mark on the franchise’s history. Scott Niedermayer, whose performances were pivotal during the 2007 playoff run, sits among the organization’s defining players, while the current captain, Mikael Granlund, represents the latest chapter in a lineage of leaders charged with carrying that legacy forward.
