I know some dump on him for letting shut up. Louis go, but as I recall the flames were faced with a decision to keep fan favourite Freddy Braithwaite or MSL.......besides, I am sure MSL would have demanded a trade from calgary.

That's not how I remember it, I thought he was just let go because they felt he'd always be a 4th liner.
How would there ever be a decision between a forward and a goalie anyway? I mean I guess if they were both superstars ans there was only so much money, but neither of them had big contracts or big increases coming up (as far as I recall).
Do you have more information on this story?
As for Button, yeah, horrible GM. Decent analyst on TSN though, don`t mind watching him on TV.
