Report: Jets' Byfuglien won't be disciplined for shoving Perry
Chris Humphreys / USA TODAY
Dustin Byfuglien dodged a bullet this time.
The Winnipeg Jets defenseman - who served a four-game suspension near season's end for a cross check on J.T Miller - was up to his nasty tricks again Monday against the Anaheim Ducks, shoving forward Corey Perry in the back of the head after a goal.
Byfuglien, who got a roughing minor, will receive no supplementary discipline for the incident, Kevin Allen of USA Today reports.
The Jets wound up losing Monday's contest 5-4 in overtime with Perry scoring one goal.
