Only keep him if there is absolutely no other option. The fact is, Flames need to get bigger and meaner. As much as I'd like to keep all the ''good guys'' around, we are near the bottom of the league and changes and tough decisions need to be made. If we let Butler walk, and get sign/acquire another defenceman who fits the bill of truculent, I'll be happy. However, if nothing is available, I'd be fine with keeping him on for another season and flipping him at the deadline.
