Emilio Estevez Supports Anaheim Ducks With Amazing Mighty Ducks Tweets

Gordon Bombay will never forget his roots! Emilio Estevez threw it back to his Mighty Ducks days by supporting the real-life Anaheim Ducks NHL hockey team during their heated match against the Chicago Blackhawks on Monday, May 25.

Estevez — much to the satisfaction of fans — rattled off several references from the 1992 Disney classic while watching the game.

“GO GET ‘EM TONIGHT DUCKS!!! @AnaheimDucks#GordonBombay,” the 53-year-old tweeted. “Ducks: 2 Blackhawks: ZEEEEEEERO! Ducks Fly Together!!! @AnaheimDucks.”

Estevez reprised his role as Coach Gordon Bombay in D2: The Mighty Ducks (1994), but ducked (pun intended) out of 1996’s D3: The Mighty Ducks. The franchise also starred a young Joshua Jackson (Charlie Conway forever!), Elden Henson, Shaun Weiss, Garette Ratliff Henson, Marguerite Moreau, and Vincent Larusso.

“I feel like a fourth film should happen, and if there was space for any of the original kids that come back and have a role, I would be surprised that anybody didn’t want to do it,” Jackson told Time magazine in June 2014.

The Dawson’s Creek alum continued: “The next generation should have its own version. Not that we need to come back as adults, but I hope my kids grow up and play pickup hockey and I hope that they have their own movies like my generation had those movies. In that way, yeah, of course, I’d be a part of something like that.”
