The Ducks and Kings have an intense rivalry thanks to these two Pacific Division rivals playing only a few miles away from each other along Interstate 5. The rivalry began when the Ducks entered the league in 1993 and has been raging ever since. The biggest clash between the Ducks and Kings took place in the 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs when the Kings defeated the Ducks 4-3 in the Western Conference Semifinals. Don’t miss your chance to see these two teams battle for Southern California supremacy.
Similar to the Ducks’ rivalry with the Kings, their rivalry with the San Jose Sharks also stems from the proximity of the two teams. The Ducks and Sharks have both played in the Pacific Division throughout their history, and in 2009 the two teams squared off in the playoffs for the first time. Make sure to book your tickets to the Honda Center for Ducks-Sharks games if you want to see an intense matchup.

Fight Songs
Rock the Pond
This fun song was played before every game back in the team’s Mighty Ducks days and is a fun way to get into the Ducks spirit before the game.
The Ducks Goal Song
To all my friends, present past and beyond
Especially those who weren’t with us too long
Life is the most precious thing you can lose
While you were here the fun was never ending
Laugh a minute was only beginning
Canton, Colvin, Nichols, this one’s for you
Ever get the feeling you can’t go on
Just remember whose side it is that you’re on
You’ve got friends with you till the end
If you’re ever in a tough situation
We’ll be there with no hesitation
Brotherhood’s our rule we cannot bend
When you’re feeling too close to the bottom
You know who it is you can count on
Someone will pick you up again
We can conquer anything together
All of us are bonded forever
If I die you die that’s the way it is
To all my friends, present past and beyond
To all those who weren’t with us too long
Life is the most precious thing you can lose
While you were here the fun was never ending
Laugh a minute was only the beginning
Canton, Colvin, Nichols, this one’s for you
