Byfuglien gets 10-minute misconduct for bumping into referee

Anyone who knows hockey knows that Winnipeg Jets blue-liner Dustin Byfuglien is a very large human being who likes to throw his 6-foot-5, 260-pound frame around.

However, Byfuglien's aggressive nature got the better of him in Tuesday's game against the Montreal Canadiens, as he received a 10-minute misconduct for bumping into the referee following a melee in the Jets' crease near the end of the third period.

Following the game, Winnipeg head coach Paul Maurice was not concerned about the situation and thought Byfuglien didn't mean to bump the referee at all, according to Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Sun.

The Jets went on to take the game in overtime for their 50th win of the season.
