Crap fight. Cote needed a win and he got it...barely. That was a desperate win. If Cote loses many more fights he will not be around next year.

Can't believe I'm saying this, considering the competition, but...
slight edge Cote.

I love Cote so I find it unnerving when he drops the mitts with Godard. It wasn't the greatest fight, for the potential it had. Cote's new style is boring but way smarter than how he used to fight in the past, especially against a wrecking machine like Godard. Cote comes out on top in this one, seemed to land more, though nothing big. I'm calling this one a 4. And pay no heed to whatever inane jibberish mcb comes up with for this one.

Goddard last time, Cote this time!

Cote gets a "W" for this??? Did he get a punch off? maybe so but i didn't think it was enuff for a "W". kind of looked like a muffin toss to me...but wtf do i know?

Edge Cote. I caught the end of this on television and thought Cote dominated, but after watching the replay it was very close. Godard looked a bit frustrated after taking a couple of in close left hands, but he didn't do anything to erase those points.

very close Cote got more hits in a too short fight.

CLEAR WIN Cote.

Posted by powerball on Feb 22, 2009 at 9:37 AM agree

this fight was a draw, each guy got in a shot. goodard had nothing to prove, he's been kicking cote's ass all year.

Posted by tyler1 on Feb 22, 2009 at 2:12 PM agree

I really do not care for either, however Cote landed 1 if not 2 effective punches for the win.

Posted by paddyd on Feb 22, 2009 at 11:02 AM agree

Cote starts with a hug fest, thinks he got 1 shot in, and grabs his man and pulls him down to end it fast. A real wuss of a move. RC is becoming know as the best hugger in hockey. Draw, but it may have been a smart move.
Flyers4Life, Oh really you were there. I guess they showed a totally different clip of the fight on this web site. Try watching it again 3 or 4 times with the audio off. Huggy bear riley!
Furthermore if your coach focused more on the hockey game than trying blitz Malkin and Crosby he may have won the game. I think you have been sitting to close to Coatesy your starting to sound like him!
