PrintWhat's that? Bissonnette's fight not enough for you? A little under the halfway point in the 2nd period, Eric Godard got into the fighting act against Wade Brookbank, but it didn't quite work out so well for him as it did for B-Net (nickname approved by Pensburgh's own Frank!).
Godard started off strong, but had a tough time getting his hand free to punch, and ended up missing quite a few blows. When Brookbank lost his balance it looked like Godard had the fight in hand, but Brookbank got back up and laid into his opponent with some vicious shots before Godard shifted for the takedown.
Though Godard did get the takedown, the flurry from Brookbank was too much for me to rule it as a draw. I would call this one a loss.

Now this is one where I can honestly say I voted against our beloved Pens. Brookbank took him to school here. Was disappointed with this one.

brookbank was ahead before he got spun to his knees, and got up and dished out more punishment afterwards. Clear 10-9 decision for brookband, verging on 10-8 (it’s nearing 2 am, and I’m watching boxing on espn classic, can you tell?)
haha good boxing reference. Brookbank definitely got the better of him.
