The 1994–95 Mighty Ducks of Anaheim season was the second season in franchise history. The Ducks missed the playoffs for the second year in a row. Despite a Conference-worst 5–18–1 road record, the team played well at home with an 11–9–4 record. On April 4, the team traded enforcer Stu Grimson, Mark Ferner and the team's sixth-round choice in the 1996 NHL Entry Draft to the Detroit Red Wings in exchange for Mike Sillinger and Jason York. Twenty-year-old rookie Paul Kariya was a candidate for the Calder Memorial Trophy as the NHL's top rookie, scoring 18 goals and 39 points in 47 games (the award ultimately went to the Quebec Nordiques' Peter Forsberg).

Off-season

Defenseman Randy Ladouceur is named team captain, following the departure of Troy Loney.

Regular season

The Mighty Ducks finished last in power-play percentage (11.39%) and penalty-kill percentage (75.65%) in the NHL. The team was also shut out an NHL-high six times during the regular season.[1][2]
