Here's a Throwback Thursday for the ages.

Steven Brill, who wrote the original 1992 cult classic and created Game Changers added a specific teaser for what to expect from the OG Ducks: "It starts with a fun encounter Coach Bombay [Emilio Estevez] has with Fulton—they have an interesting run-in on the street reminiscent of ways they used to meet each other back in the early days. This chance meeting between Bombay and Fulton leads to a bigger story."

The first sequel, D2, to Mighty Ducks arrived in 1994:

Disney first announced Game Changers in December, calling the series a continuation of where the films left off with Estevez reprising Gordon Bombay and Lauran Graham (Gilmore Girls, Parenthood) joining the cast. The series begins streaming March 26 on Disney Plus.
