I think we are just going to have to hope that our D are mentally stronger than that. Even with MacDonald here we are not going to be receiving elite goaltending by any stretch of the imagination.
Also, if our main concern is avoiding bad goaltending from hurting the confidence of the young players, why would we want Berra on the Heat bringing our farm team down? It would make more sense to re-sign Taylor to be the #1 on the farm and have Berra riding the pine behind Ramo.

That would still be the case with MacDonald here, especially if he is the one injured. No matter who gets hurt though the person that fills in will be less experienced. Unless we go outside of the organization.
