In the meantime, the Minnesota native has found a new profession.

This isn't Byfuglien's first tour with Classic Bass Champions, according to the website.
Apparently Byfuglien is a competitive fisher now. Good for him
According to the site, he has been touring with them for six years running. In other words, it appears that he has found his new permanent home as a competitive bass fisherman, post-hockey.
More power to him and we wish him nothing but the best of luck!
