Narrative

The Mighty Ducks movies were a popular series of films, reminiscent of The Bad News Bears, where a Ragtag Bunch Of Misfits kids play hockey and get into various misadventures and manage to work things out just in time to win the championship game or whatever.
Well, Disney being Disney, it was soon announced that an animated "Mighty Ducks" series was on the way. (This was around the same time the popularity of the movies peaked and when Disney created a real Mighty Ducks professional hockey team. By a remarkable coincidence, to be sure.)
The Mighty Ducks animated series was, to put it gently, rather a surprise for viewers expecting a comedy series about misfit kids playing hockey.
It was instead about (sit down for this) a team of super-powered anthropomorphic ducks who fight aliens with hockey-themed gadgets. Yes, somewhere in space there were two dinosaur-derived races. Interestingly, the race descended from Ceratopsians, led by Lord Dragaunus, were evil and the Therapod (well, more specifically, duck) descended race was good. By an incredible coincidence, the Duck's entire culture was based upon hockey. When Lord Dragaunus pursues the Ducks to Earth, the Ducks form an NHL team where they can hide in plain sight.
It is very possible that whomever came up with all this did so after suffering serious head trauma, or after watching a few too many episodes of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. (We also cannot rule out the possibility that they'd suffered serious head trauma and then watched a marathon of TMNT whilst recovering.)
