The Flyers needed help on the blue line, and they got it in the defensive minded MacDonald. He won’t show up on the stats sheet very often, but he is a minute muncher who can help insulate the offensive minded guys like Kimmo Timonen and Mark Streit as well as make the life of the Flyers goalies easier
STATS: 5 GP, 0G, 1A, 1PT, -1 rating, 11 hits, 11 blocked shots
