Dane Byers Fight: Springfield Falcons Players Loses His Cool, Gets Ejected (VIDEO)

Dane Byers
Dane Byers really wanted to fight somebody.

Someone get this guy somebody to fight.

Springfield Falcons captain Dane Byers caused quite a scene during his team's 4-3 loss to the Bridgeport Sound Tigers. And no, we don't know what a sound tiger is either. Byers got into a brief skirmish with Michael Haley of the Sound Tigers before being sent to the penalty box. But clearly discontent with his new surroundings, Byers continued shouting at the referee and proceeded to throw his stick. Then he let himself out of the box, yelled at the official some more and was immediately ejected.

Based on Byers' impressive resume on HockeyFights.com, this was most definitely not his first fight and by all indications, will not be his last. So we -- as well as Haley, who can be seen shrugging on the bench as Byers angrily screamed at him -- aren't quite sure why Byers was so hung up on this particular bout, especially since it was apparent that Haley got the best of the exchange.

If Byers wants to fight so badly, he should probably head over to Russia to go at it with Jon Mirasty, who we were amused to discover enjoys fighting so much that he smiles while he's being hit.

Hat tip to Puck Daddy for the video.

I was at the game and it really just seemed like a normal fight until he got to the penalty box and then he just erupted slaming his stick against the glass and it was unlike anything I had ever seen before. I do have to say though that it did pump the team up because they almost came back to beat the sound tigers being down 4-0.

With all of the things that happened in hockey over the weekend, this is the ONLY story you could find that is hockey related? Really?
