Godard with the win. But Koci got a couple knocks in. Overall pretty good scrap. Thank God hockey is back.

Godard handled the bigger guy nicely. Koci threw a couple bombs in there that didn't even make Godard blink. I miss BGL but I am definetly satisfied having godard around. Sucks about Gonchar but Koci must be taught a lesson all season.

Godard was better, not clearly.
They puts a good action from there.
NARrow win to E.Godard landing more punches.

Pretty good scrap. Nice to see Godard coming to Gonchar's defense after Koci nailed him. Godard has pretty big shoes to fill this year.

koci is tough, but outclassed by one of the best. i was surprised to see goddard in a pitt uniform. i like it. watch out philly.

EDGE to Godard by a narrow margin. He landed better punches on Koci. What a way to start off!

Koci not the same since he got his nose broken last year. Godard the win!

Both swinging for the fences. godard better get ready for a full workload. Protecting Geno and the Kid.

Nice start. Keep the bleeding hearts out of hockey.

Close fight. Godard landed better punches but it was very even. If Koci had landed one or two of his big ones that missed, it would have been a different story. I gotta say though, Koci stood his ground after a big hit and he certainly didn't get "paid back big time" in any sense of the phrase.

Godard is THE most under-rated low publicity scrapper in the league. Godard is a tough hombre. Now that he is in Pitt... he should get some more media attention protecting the kid.

I did not see the hit on Gonchar, and have not heard it was cheap, but too say Koci needs to pay all season (battleaxe), is foolish. If he was cheap, Crosby would have went out instead. But those of us that know KOci from the AHL side as well, are use to him. I look forward to the trickle down effects with Norfolk and W/B.
