Osgood will eat the avalanches alive
 
Icon says it all. That second goal wings goal was so dope. It went like straight up into the air.
 
butchered! Av's all the way anyone remember that goalie fight between Roy and what his face but roy won for sure
 
yeah Avs will come back and win, they just wanted to give wings the lead so they would have a chance
 
No it was Vernon beating the shit out of Roy. Osgood was no where near that fight. But you cant honestly watch that with an open mind and tell me the Avs won. Lemiuex got his shit rocked hard by Mcarty! The goalie fight in that one was probably a tie. Heres a link for thoes who need a reminder. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7DlAjrhm9s&mode=related&search=

In 98 osgood and roy did throw down. I would give the slight win the Roy (he was a bit more jacked up). The overall brawl in this game is more of a tie maybe a sight win for the wings. It was mostly a hudle on the boards but one Avs player was getting particularly creamed. Link to this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHNE7rIPZzM&feature=related

Im interested to hear your perspectives. I personally was at the 98 one although a wee lad and my pops was at the 97 brawl. Enjoy.
 
wings all the way, I've been watching them since like second grade. Those huge fights between the avs and the wings were pretty crazy, back in the days of yzerman, shanahan, fedorov, larionov, etc.
 
LOL... 2-0 Wings lead series..

5-1 on the second game..its not even close yet, when are the Avs going to start playing because right now they look like a HS team.

Also, as for the goalie fights.

Roy - 6' (175 - 192 lbs)

Vernon - 5' 9" (155 - 180 lbs)

Osgood - 5' 10" (176 - 181 lbs)

Two things to take into consideration..In both fights (no matter what team you root for), Roy ended up with bloody faces, neither Vernon nor Osgood had any blood or tending to from the training. Both fights ended with Roy going over to the trainer to get patched up. And considering that Roy has a 2-3" height advantae and a good 10lbs or more over either Detroit Goalie...HE GOT JACKED!!!

LOL

My personal favorite part of all those fights is when Brendan Shanahan "intercepted" Roy when Roy was going to be to be a pansy goalie entering a fight with a non-goalie (when he tried to go after McCarthy while McCarthy was beating the crap out of Lemieux who debutted the move affectionally known in hockey as "The Turtle").

Unspoken rule, goalies dont fight non-goalies...
