That would have been such a better fight with the helmets off ! Shame.
Nonetheless, Orr stepped up his game enough to earn, at least, a draw against, arguably, this years' heavyweight champ (so far).
Heckler warning - Notice the carefully placed ''at least'' and ''arguably'' in that last sentence.

MSG was showing a replay with a different camera shot that showed one Godard blow catching Orr square on the chin and knocking his head back. But to watch this view gives Orr the nod. That was a huge Rangers comeback last night, 3-2 in the SO. Orr was chasing Crosby around during the first period and Godard stepped in.

Great fight by probably the two best fighters going right now. I love Godard but I gave the edge to Orr, he really picked his spots there, he would throw and they would land.

Not biased at all here...Diehard Bruin Fan, but Orr clearly wins this bout. It wasn't lopsided or anything, but he is more active, he controls the fight and he lands more well placed punches. It's just that simple. What amazes me is Orr isn't a very big guy, he's just big enough to use his talent which is a solid punch.

Bombs Away!

Yeah even as a Pens fan I gotta give this one to Orr. Orr had good defense it really didn't look like Godard landed much and Orr threw some stunners that really connected. Pretty good fight though.

good fight . Edge to Orr.

Pretty decent go here. Orr came out on top. For some reason Godard hasn't done very well against Orr his whole career. I guess Orr just has his number. It was stated before the game that Godard was battling a bit of pnuemonia, I don't know that this would have made any difference though. Good scrap - win for Orr.

orr had the tall one off balance all fight,you rocked him baby,you brought the fight down town,no bush wacking needed,orr you win one for the good guys.lets put evil on the shelf..

Great fight, very close but i have to give the edge to Orr, seemed like he landed more power shots but still a good showing from Godard. Two of the best enforcers in the game.
