{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}I imagine they’re banking on a second season at least.
They really only need to wrap up the hockey portion of the story. Everything else is kind of immaterial. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Season 1 wraps with the Don't Bothers finally beating the Ducks, and a Season 2 can focus on the fallout of the underdogs defeating the top team in the state. Will it change the Don't Bothers' outlook? What happens with this incarnation of the Ducks being taken down a peg so tremendously? {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}i always thought the endgame would be the Don't Bothers somehow becoming the Ducks. Like a game for the name.

{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}I thought they were finally going to humanize Coach T, and then...nope.
Though we did finally get to see a decent side of Stephanie.

{Spoiler}They forfeit the championship? Wasn't expecting that. I was expecting Sophie to dress for the game, but stay on the bench.
But, they got the Mighty Ducks name. How could you not love the original jerseys coming back? And they didn't change the names, despite some not being original Ducks. Bombay's back leading the Ducks, as it should be.
And they cemented Stephanie's face turn. Not a bad first season.

So that ended about as well as it could. Leaned a bit too heavy on the cliches, but a solid finish over-all. {Spoiler}That ten player rule seemed a bit arbitrary. The Don't Bothers didn't even have ten players until the Czech brothers joined midway through the season. Why would you even allow a team into a league that feeds a statewide tournament that they couldn't even play in?
Also the animated Ducks only had six players and they were allowed to play in the NHL. Just saying.
There has to be a better place to get Chinese food in Minneapolis then PF Changs. There just has to.
Anybody catch who was wearing who's jersey? I saw Conway, Averman, Moreau, Wu and Gaffney shirts out there, but other then Evan wearing Charlie's and I think Logan wearing Wu's, I couldn't tell who was who. Were there any Mark or Karp shirts out there? Because that would have been awesome.
Seems like Coach T not having the actual authority to put the team's name on the line in a game is something that should have come up much sooner.
I'm kinda sad we learned nothing new about Coach T. There has to be a reason why they're hiding his real name, right? I really hope this doesn't turn into another Ralph Boner.
I'm also sad we didn't get any kind of post-credit scene or hint of a continuation. I really wanted to see an adult Karp approaching Coach T at the end, offering him a chance at revenge.

{Spoiler}I’m curious what a season two would be like since they really didn’t end with an obvious hook.

{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}I’m curious what a season two would be like since they really didn’t end with an obvious hook. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}Oh, there's a ton of stuff they can do from here, even without dealing with my Karp fanfiction or bringing back old characters.
I would assume the main focus would be on how the kids handle being the Ducks now. They're no longer the underdogs that everybody can look past and just have fun. Now they're the team everybody looks to expecting success and big things from. Getting to States is no longer a cool bonus, but an obligation. Can they handle the stress? Can they do it while maintaining their "fun first" motto?
Also, what happens to Coach T now? Despite his dubious tactics and unethical behavior, it is very obvious he put his all into making the Ducks a championship team. Now, not only has that all been taken away from him, but he's cast as the villain in the process. Actually he's very similar to Johnny Lawrence in that regard. Making the Ducks into a championship powerhouse was probably the most meaningful thing in his life, now he's the bad guy for it. Can he just walk away from that? Does he try to redeem himself? Or does he just sink further in the role of a villain and seek petty revenge?
And a lot of his players seemed visibly frustrated with Coach T's coaching. I think it was Stephanie's daughter who was audibly upset about not being able to hang out at the party before the States tournament. Do they stick with Coach T out of loyalty? Or do they take their chances with the new Ducks?
Plus, who coaches the new Ducks? Alex said she's looking to return to Law School, between that, work and being a single Mom, will she have the time to coach as well? After the Don't Bothers performance in States, they're definitely getting scouted, so they can't use that loophole to let Bombay coach. Who does that leave? Nobody actually wants Coach Orion back, do they? For those begging for Charlie's return that would seem to be the perfect role for him, but how do they get there? Or maybe this becomes part of Coach T's unlikely redemption?
There's plenty of story left to explore. The problem is, with the shows tendencies to push the more interesting stories to the sideline in favor of things like Alex' frustration with her job or her issues with Stephanie, will they actually explore them?

Two things {Spoiler}The Lumberjacks scored there. Also, as someone who actually does what Bombay pretends to do. Dont’t dump Gatorade on the ice!!! It’s basically salt water. Salt and ice are not compatible.

It’s on Reddit if you check the Mighty Ducks sub.

And I think Logan had Kenny Wu's, same thing.

Considering how little buzz the show generated online and how long between the end of the first season and this announcement was, I'm honestly really surprised, I figured it was dead. I guess Emilio Estevez had nothing better to do. Once again, I just hope this season decides to focus more on the kids this time around then the bulk of season one did.

But I’m not very excited for it. That had maybe a movie and they crammed it into 5 hours of TV. It just wasn’t very good but I enjoyed it. Hopefully season 2 concentrates on having a story with stakes and builds towards the end. Instead of the “Oh shit, it’s last episode already! We gotta wrap this up” feel the first season had.
