The Flyers suffered another injury to their blue line on Saturday with Luke Schenn going down for two weeks with a lower-body injury. With Mark Streit still out with injury and Radko Gudas serving out the remainder of his suspension, the Flyers needed to make a move. The Flyers recalled Andrew MacDonald from the Lehigh […]
