Erikksen and Zyuzin were both train wrecks. Zyuzin was at least consistently crappy. Erikkson would have an okay game and then at a crucial moment do something so remarkably stupid that would lose the game.
However, my vote goes to Peter "the pylon" Buzek. He was about as useless as they come. I vividly recall being in the Dome for a game against Dallas. For some inexplicable reason Buzek is on the ice at the same time as Modano. The play leaves the Dallas zone and Modano gets the puck in the neutral zone along the right wing. At this point it's a 2 on 2 and Buzek and his defense partner are in good position. Then Modano calmly walks around Buzek for a breakaway and goal. You could say that Modano made a lot of defensemen look like they were standing still over the years. However, in this case Buzek was literally standing still just inside the blueline. Hence "the pylon". And 20,000 of us could see it coming and playing out as if it were in slow motion. I would take Butler any day over Buzek, Erikkson or Zyuzin.
