What a night Tuesday night was for hockey fight fans. We had a heavyweight bout worth every bit, and a couple of middle/light weight bouts. I'll start off with the heavyweight bout that all hockey fight fans are talking about. With Eric Godard being called up by the Calgary Flames, many knew that there was a good possibility of seeing Derek Boogaard vs Eric Godard. And yes we had our dreams come true! Off a faceoff they drop the gloves and throw away. Boogaard had the edge early but Godard came back with a right that knocks Boogaard off balance and then another right that makes Boogaard off balance more and down to one knee. Then Boogaard gets back to his feet and Godard throws two more rights and Boogaard went down to the ice. What a win for Godard, in his first game from being called up by the Flames. Hopefully he stays up with the Flames and shows more of what he can do with his fists like last night. View the YouTube video below of the fight. You can download a clip of the fight on Adam's Hockey Site.
The middle/light weight fights from last night were Josh Gratton vs Matthew Barnaby and it was all Gratton in that one. The Ducks-Predators game had two fights. The first one was between Shane O'Brien and Jordin Tootoo, in a good spirited bout with the edge going to Tootoo. The second fight was between Shawn Thornton and Darcy Hordichuk with the edge going to Thornton. What a night that was, I hope tonight is just as good.
