Even exhausted, Godard handles Koci, who only faired better than expected, because of the Champs' fatigue.
The hit on Talbot was clean, and Koci did land some shots, but the fall was a slip, and in the end, he got owned by the better (tired) fighter.

Godard with the win--good to see him step up after Koci targeted Talbot. Koci is the Arnold Skaaland of the NHL--he never wins a fight.

Koci got his ass beat.

What a ***** Koci is. going after a player that wants nothing to do with him. Nice step up and W by Godard.

Godard racks up another one!

Godard with an edge, but he was gassed at the end of it. I don't think Koci had much left either.

Godard delivers another beatin. Koci looked like Goliath against little Max Talbot, but Koci got was he was looking for when Godard found him. Too bad for Koci it was a clear beating. Both of these heavy weights were at the end of a long shift or this fight may have lasted longer. (And Koci would be in the morgue)

wow, Godard has sick balance, impressive. he was tired, took shots to the head, delivered spice....W for EG....

Posted by paddyd on Apr 8, 2009 at 10:35 AM agree

Godard with the W and he did nod the refs in. Lets be honest he was out of gas.

Posted by mikebflorida on Apr 8, 2009 at 1:39 PM agree

Godard got off to a good start but Koci comes back a bit. After multiple looks, I'm tempted to give it a draw but will give it to Godard, he landed more punches.

Godard is the man he just hammered him didn't even give him a chance to say no.

Davide, bud se to nauc, nebo se na to vyser.

Eric is the man... Although Koci may have contributed to turning his team around as the dams broke thereafter. Still got his a** beat.
