April 4, 1997 at Buffalo, it's New York Rangers and Buffalo Sabres in a hockey melee. This line brawl happened at 8:16 in the first period because Michael Peca had made a nasty cross check on Brian Leetch a few days ago. The Rangers went after Peca several times in the game and this was the first time.
Rangers enforcer Darren Langdon is the first to go after Peca but the linesmen get between them. Ray and Cairns are having a staredown, while Churla apparently goes after Peca because a huge pileup starts. Garry Galley drops his gloves and comes to aid, Grosek & Langdon pair off and Boughner and Churla start fighting. Matchups are:
Darren Langdon vs Michal Grosek
Shane Churla vs Bob Boughner
Eric Cairns vs Rob Ray
