Butler out 3 weeks with a left thigh laceration. #Flames
Tough break for Butler, who won't be able to contribute to the Flames stretch run. He has two goals and 13 points in 60 games. Expect Derek Smith to take his place in the lineup.
The Calgary Flames have officially traded defenceman Robyn Regehr to the Buffalo Sabres along with Ales Kotalik and a 2012 second round draft pick in exchange for defenceman Chris Butler and forward Paul Byron. The deal included all the particulars we had heard last night, with the only difference being the second round pick heading Buffalo's way instead of vice versa.
