Aren't there some alignments with the Anaheim city that would make it difficult?Obviously I don't live in the area, but do people in Orange County actually care about the jerseys being orange? I think most people just care about the jersey looking good or not, no matter the color scheme.
I get what ownership and the PR department is trying to do. But why do we have to go so hard in on the orange? Couldn't it be done in a more subtle way? If they care so much about marketing the team in the entire OC area, they should just rename the whole franchise into "The Orange County Ducks".
I think it's good that they try to use orange. It gives some characteristic to the outlook. But imo the problem is that they didn't worked it in from the start. The post-Disney rebranding was all black and gold. Now they push orange onto that scheme and it's just too busy and not fitting. I'm all for using orange, but then the whole thing, including the logo colors, has to be revisited. As the logo is still black and gold, it makes sense that there is also some black and gold areas on the jersey. And like I said, it's just too busy.
Maybe the logo go black and orange? Not sure how it will look though, but could give a bit more simplistic look.
Look at the regular jersey. The side stripes, it's so much of them, they don't make any sense.
