After injuries to two defensemen and a suspension to Radko Gudas, Andrew MacDonald has returned to the Flyers.
Promoted from the Phantoms, MacDonald practiced with the Flyers in Voorhees on Monday and replaced the injured Luke Schenn, who is expected to miss two weeks.
On Tuesday, when the Flyers host MacDonald's former team, the New York Islanders, the 29-year-old defenseman will be paired with Michael Del Zotto.
MacDonald is looking at this stint as an audition to stay with the Flyers, who would have to get creative to fit him under the cap when Mark Streit returns from an injury.
