This is another solid player and PSP is right, the youngens have arrived on this team and it is showing.

The hype about Myers has been a lot of fun, and very well deserved. But how about Chris Butler? This kid has been ROCK solid in our own zone. Amazing how our top 2 defensemen are also 2 of our youngest guys on the team. |

Butler is a machine. Totally being overshadowed by Tyler McFranchise, but he's been a damn stud. |

He does log the most icetime night in and night out, right? |

now only if sekera could prove he is a beast as well. if not i say give gragnani a chance. you want to free up space for myers. sekera may yield some thing. |

Only if he doesn't wash his hands after using the restroom. |

I think that this may be our best Sabre defense ever, and next year it promises to only get better with Myers and Butler being a year older, plus Brennan, Gragnani and Weber coming in to replace the departing Tallinder and Lydman. Strong, strong unit for years to come. Also, I think Paetsch may have played well enough to pass Sekera on the depth chart. |

Sekara doesn't need to be a beast, he just needs to be more offensively productive than he is a defensive hinderance, something he has largely failed to show. |

Well, we don't have to worry about Sekera quite yet. |

one word describes Butler's play perfectly: Solid. |

Butler had an awkward moment once, just to see what it felt like. |

If Shakira was competant in either end; and had a semblance of poise, he would be an adequete defenseman.... |

...if Chris chose to work on his wrist-shot, and used it from the point, or the top of the circle...he'd be lethal. Fucking lethal. 49 out of 50 slapshots - from any player, on any team - are just so much bullshit. The wrist-shot, Chris. Develop your wrist-shot. |

Hell, I saw a bit of his swagger in the offensive zone last night, not a lot, but a bit. I dont know what dented his confidence, but I hope he gets it figured out soon. For some reason I trust Ruff to handle it. I just hope he doesnt turn into kalinin. |

Yeah, those quick get'm through Lidstrom-esque wristers! We need someone on the team that does those. Lydman isn't bad at them, he just never does them enough. Everyone else takes the big old windup for 3 second slapper or a wild, wide one timer |
