Godard had more haymakers and did more damage

Posted by azjim on Oct 14, 2008 at 10:31 PM agree

An excellent fight. Godard gets the wins for landing the harder punches, but both were bringing it.

Posted by blackgoldfan on Oct 15, 2008 at 8:00 PM agree

This should be FOW. Very slight edge to Godard for the "W". Cote does well just lands a few less shots than Godard who puts an exclaimation piont on the win with a late haymaker.

Wow. Im impressed. This is how all NHL fights should be.

Great fight by two great fighters... good to see Godard going toe-to-toe. Hope to see more of these two against eachother in the future. Win by an edge to Godard for the late bombs.

I watched this one live, good fight and a lot of good punches thrown, DRAW.

Posted by Wensinkfan on Oct 17, 2008 at 11:33 PM agree

Both of them were throwing and connecting hard. I'll give it to Goddard for that last throw at the end. Very close to being a draw. Gotta love Cote's style of fighting. He just brings it. The re-match should be just as good.

Either Godard has a rock-hard chin, or Cote was throwing pillows because his punches didn't hurt Godard at all.

One of the few fights I'll review.

Great fight- DRAW

Posted by Boone2511 on Mar 28, 2009 at 1:28 PM agree

Godard landed about 20 more punches he won easy.

Posted by lovejoy on Oct 15, 2008 at 2:23 AM agree

good old-fashioned fight. no turtling or ducking, only firing in rapid frequency. great!

Posted by chl37 on Oct 15, 2008 at 7:45 AM agree

clear win for godard who landed more and heavier shots consistently. all credit to cote, who is not yet in top tier status but has one hell of a chin. great fight.

Cote's way out of his league here. Why did the Flames give up Godard?

Posted by trpaulson on Oct 15, 2008 at 1:43 PM agree

Godard wins on the strength of that last punch. Good old-fashioned fight between two of the toughest.
