Tales of the Tape: Philadelphia Flyers 1/13/09, Eric Godard vs. Riley Cote

Good morning, Penguin faithful!  I'll bet the morning air was a little bit sweeter this morning with the knowledge that the Penguins took down the Flyers last night...in Philadelphia!  So how could I make your morning a little better?  Check this out:

You didn't exactly have to be Nostradamus to predict that Godard and Cote were going to go at it.  So midway through the 1st period, it happened.  Goddard and Cote dropped their gloves and the bell sounded (no, really - you can hear it in the video).  The fight didn't last long as Godard unleashed fists like a man possessed and Cote went down as the linesmen hopped in to break it up. 

This one looked like it could have gone longer.  But it didn't.  And maybe Cote could have come back and done something.  But he didn't.  Godard gets my vote on this one, most definitely.  Boy, do I feel good.

Coming up is the other inevitable fight of the night involving Biz-Nasty and whomever he got his mits on.

It pains me to see Godard lift him up as if saying, “There’s plenty more” and then watching the refs step in. Let them fight.

Hockey fights...

Are usually pretty awkward to look at sometimes…

But this one was great! Ahhh, I just sooo love it.
I just had to laugh at Cote.
Seriously, who won was a no-brainer lol

I woke up feeling great, but this vid just made it even greater! Ha lol
Love it lol

Cote really has been useless as a fighter lately (which also means he’s completely useless).

Also, I’m not the idiot that voted draw.

It was probably Riley who considered it a draw.

He’s still a pretty rugged looking guy. He did what he had to do but Godard has been knocking guys down this season.

I think my favorite is when somebody posted a comment on another blog site and called him Riley Cotex. To funny.

hah I was also a fan of the former Flyers Ben Eager being called Ben Ogre. Pretty accurate.
