jwmann2 1 Report post Posted December 17, 2011 Anyone remember this? The Avalanche had a squad back then with Forsberg and Roy. Saw a brawl like this in a minor league game but never in an NHL game (in person). 3 P. Marlowe, Cloune and Z and D for the C reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

March 26th, 1997. My BDay is March 12th, and my buddy just happened to pick up some tickets to this game and took me there for my bday. We were losing at the time of the brawl and I remember us looking at each other and saying we don't even care if we win at this point, it was absolutely THE best game I have ever been too... ...still have the stub.

LeftWinger 5,130 Report post Posted December 17, 2011 One thing that stands out after watching that video again, our team today couldn't hold the jocks of that 1997 team PLUS the NHL as a whole pales in comparison to that era of the NHL. Gary Bettman has ruined the NHL. Period. 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KATIEBARTHEDOOR24 426 Report post Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) I remember the night in Boston. I'm surprised they still don't boo yzerman.
