Hey, if you really think he is still playing solid, we should obviously be offering Butler a long term extension!

Is there a worse argument out there than "You have a different opinion than me so that means you don't watch the games?"

Knee injuries take a while to recover from and I'm assuming he's wearing a brace as well? If you ever wore a brave you would know how uncomfortable it is.

"The team you cheer for is bad so your opinion must also be."

I'm not sure 2 years counts as long term...

In all fairness, that usually holds true for oiler fans....just sayin'

Russell arguably hasn't been as good post-injury as he was prior. Not surprising, and I am not at all concerned.

Kris Russell is the least of our issues. And I might argue is one of a few bright spots this season. Well worth the contract.
