Flyers' Andrew MacDonald to miss 4-6 weeks; will Brandon Manning or Samuel Morin replace him?

Defenseman Andrew MacDonald will miss four to six weeks with an apparent knee injury, and the Flyers might turn to Samuel Morin to take his roster spot.

We should know at Monday’s practice in Voorhees.

The 6-foot-7, 227-pound Morin played well enough to make the team in training camp. He stuck with the Flyers for the first four games — it was a precautionary measure because Shayne Gostisbehere health was in question — but he did not play and was sent to the Phantoms.

In five games with Lehigh Valley, Morin has a goal, three assists, and a plus-3 rating.
