List of Anaheim Ducks broadcasters

This is a list of broadcasters for the Anaheim Ducks ice hockey team.

Radio

In 2006–07, KLAA (AM) assumed the broadcast rights for the Anaheim Ducks, a National Hockey League team. That team went on to win the Stanley Cup in June 2007. In 2022, Ducks radio broadcasts moved to a dedicated stream on TuneIn.[1]

Television

The current Ducks television homes are KCOP-TV (Channel 13), the local MyNetworkTV owned-and-operated station, and the Victory+ streaming platform.[3]

Disney planned to start an ESPN West regional sports network for the 1998–99 season, which would also carry Anaheim Angels baseball games, but the plan was abandoned.[4] The Ducks subsequently partnered with what were then called Fox Sports West and Prime Ticket, and later Bally Sports West and SoCal, as their cable telecast home until the end of the 2023-24 season. In the Los Angeles market, in the case of scheduling conflicts, the Fox Sports/Bally Sports networks would move a scheduled telecast of an Angels, Clippers, Ducks, or Kings game to KCOP-TV.
