Dustin Byfuglien -the Big Man

jerrytibstra — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 17:32:48 -0700

16 x 20" Graphite on Paper. The original and fine art prints are available in our STORE. "In the last few years I've watched Dustin transform from a wide-eyed, round faced kid into a big man who knows his place on the ice. What I really admire about him is that he's learned to use his size with intelligence unlike so many single dimensional players who have used their size to simply become enforcers. His effort is paying off big for this Big Man!"
