That was nastier than it appeared, before degenerating into a huggies commercial.
Kudos to Cote for , literally, ''stepping up''.
Hard fought draw.

A draw if anything because Cote emerged with his head still on his neck. That was a vicious fight--without the linesmen intervening they might have each resorted to biting off one another's ears.

this looked like a nothing fight (crap) unti i saw the boys leaking.....then i saw the replay and realized there was a short violent exchange early before the hugfest.....i had to go back and upgrade from 1 out of 10 to a 6 out of 10 and take my insults off the board

i would call it a draw but i would need a better camera angle to see how flush the shots landed on each guy early.....nice spirit to this tilt early

I'm a homer. I love Cote. But I gave it a draw, each landed some goodies, and both were opened up. Please don't take it personally, its just my opinion. Good fight. Either of these guys would destroy Neil or Peters.

started out with some nice shots being landed there from both, Can't blame cote for pulling in close after the first few seconds of that, I can't believe how huge that fritz is, has he fought Boogaard yer?

At first i was going to give it to Fritz, but after watching the replay, Cote landed more than i thought, gonna have to go with a draw.

This fight was good for the first 2 seconds, then turned into a f@g fest

Posted by mckendo83 on Dec 10, 2008 at 8:52 AM agree

not good fihgt, a DRAW.

Posted by blazers76 on Dec 9, 2008 at 10:59 PM agree

Win Fritz. Thought Riley held on for dear life and looked like he cut Fritz with his thumb. Give Cote credit for dropping the gloves with a much bigger opponent and even landing a couple.

Posted by bruiser11 on Dec 9, 2008 at 10:23 PM agree

they threw some solid ones then wrestled like rasslin'...

Posted by Brashearfan on Dec 10, 2008 at 7:52 AM agree

Clear draw here. Cote is crazy as usual dropping with a man towering over him. Height and weight doesn't seem to bother Cote.

Posted by kbelanger33nyi on Dec 10, 2008 at 6:03 PM agree

Fritz with the edge....both ended up bloody..thats ole time hockey..OK ISLES -CAN WE KEEP FRITZ IN THE LINEUP INSTEAD OF SENDING HIM UP AND DOWN..gives us fans something to look forward to this season..
