We have to think big picture.
A veteran presence is always a good thing to have around the net. MacDonald, if he proves himself as a solid backup, will have value himself.

Too much uncertainty, even for a rebuilding team, to go with two goalies who've never played in the NHL. If they can't beat out MacDonald for the spot, they don't deserve it.
