Roy calls out Chris Osgood, April 1998

Later during the 1997-98 season, the two teams met in yet another game full of fights. Just before heading into the playoffs, both teams engaged in a full-on line-brawl, wrestling around just to the left of Patrick Roy. Roy decided he had seen enough and began pushing around his teammates; he then calmly removed his gloves and helmet and went to help out on the pile.

As a referee began to pull Roy away from the other fights, Roy noticed Red Wings goalie Chris Osgood moving closer towards the scrum pile. The fiery Roy then challenged Osgood to meet him at center ice and the two went at it making it the second goalie fight to occur in the rivalry.
