MacDonald said in his interview that he had played with 7 or 8 of his new teammates before joining the Flames. I was curious as to who. Here are his former teammates on the Flames:
-Tanguay (Halifax Mooseheads 97/98)
-Hudler (Grand Rapids 03-06, Detroit Red Wings 06/07, 10-12)
-Wideman (Boston 06-07 - also possible Weisbrod connection)
-Jackman (Bridgeport 07/08, NY Islanders 07-09)
-Comeau (Bridgeport 07/08, NY Islanders 07-09)
-Stajan (Toronto 09/10)
-Stempniak (Toronto 09/10)
Heat Players
-Kolanos (Grand Rapids 06/07)
-Estoclet (Grand Rapids 11/12)
He seems pretty familar with a lot of the Flames organization and could be a good dressing room guy comfortable with a backup role behind Kipper.
On an unrelated note, I am very curious as to who else is on the Flames' "Acquire by trade if possible" list.
