Big man, bigger skill set.

Winnipeg Jets defenseman Dustin Byfuglien recorded one of the nicest assists of the season, putting the puck behind his back with one hand, then kicking it over to Mathieu Perreault.

Perreault promptly backhanded the puck past Carey Price, who likely didn't expect Byfuglien to get it out in front of the net to begin with.

The goal was Perreault's fifth of the season and stood as the game-winner.
