MCleveland89 122 Report post Posted November 17, 2009 So I've been reading The Good, The Bad, The Ugly and was reading over the big brawl that happened back in '97 with the Wings and the Avs. Yes, we all know what happened. But, I decided to see if I could find the video online. YouTube has everything, of course. So, here's the video for your enjoyment. I'm not looking to start any stupid "Who won the fight" discussion, but I enjoyed watching it all over again and decided to share. Enjoy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shanny wasn't too shabby either Edited November 17, 2009 by ilmickeyli Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vladifan 680 Report post Posted November 17, 2009 I don't even like fights as a rule - but that fight had to be one of my favorite moments in Red Wings' history. And McCarty's goal IS my favorite goal by any Red Wing. That is, if I had to choose just one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hooon 1,089 Report post Posted November 17, 2009 Great game, and I'm lucky to have the entire game on DVD. If you guys don't have it already, buy the Red Wings hockeytown boxset (i forget what its really called) but it has the videos for the first three modern cups, plus i think 6 or 8 full games from 97, 98 and 02. Great moment in sports/hockey/wings history! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shady Ultima 40 Report post Posted November 17, 2009 I miss those days. I want Colorado to be back so we have a real rival who's our equal. A team worth playing... McCarty makes me proud of my hometown. (Leamington, ON) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjlegend 155 Report post Posted November 17, 2009 When the coaches are beaking, Bowman is apparently saying to Crow: "I know your father and he wouldn't be very proud right now..." "I can't believe I shook his freakin' hand!'' I heart Dino. He's the one guy I wish we could have kept on one of the Cup-winning teams. If we had to do it all again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great moment in sports/hockey/wings history! I'll have to check that out.

He's the one guy I wish we could have kept on one of the Cup-winning teams. If we had to do it all again In the book I mentioned in my first post, the author says the exact quote is "I knew your father before you did, and he wouldn't be proud of you right now." I miss Scotty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
