Cote vs. Roy: The Rematch

If you're like me (and obviously, you're not), you've had this day circled on your calendar since the schedule came out last year. Roy vs. Cote: The Rematch. Let's review the video, shall we?


Fight number 1


Fight number 2


Roy having an absolute meltdown on the bench after fight #2


Okay, it looks like Roy pwned Cote in fight #1. Riley got pretty lucky with a quick takedown on fight #2. And man oh man, Roy was riled up. (Pun intended)

Roy has played 38 games for 67 PIM this year. He has been playing pretty regularly, but before playing on March 3rd, hadn't been in a game since February 17th. I am willing to say it's even money whether or not he actually plays tomorrow. Best part is that this is almost exactly one year to the day since they fought. Let's see if Riley has been saving up for this one...

  1. I remember this madness! That was quite a game, with Roy going berserk on the Bolts' bench as Tortorella was ready to throttle him. I didn't even realize that Roy is now on the Flames, adding some potential spice to tonight's game...

  2. Not that I like Roy, but it's understandable why he flipped out. His arm was caught inside his jersey when Cote suddenly biffed him in the face twice for the TKO. I like Cote, but even as a fan, it looked like a cheap shot.
