They have absolutely no confidence in Taylor and would prefer to eat up another contract spot that let him see NHL ice?

MacDonald, from what I've seen, is about the same level as Irving. He's a bit of a positional goaltender with slow lateral movement (better than Karlsson, but still slow). He'd be a suitable backup if the Flames ever lose confidence in Irving and is an upgrade over Taylor.
