It's not so bad, if it wasn't total bullcrap. The team didn't play poorly that game, McDonald did. He played like total garbage and the loss was on him. If what he said was true I don't think anyone would have a problem with it but he threw his team under the bus when the majority of the blame rested at his shoulders.

Yup. Both O'Brien and Brodie made brutal plays on each respective play resulting in the chance but neither of those shots should have gone in.

He let in two weak goals. Instead of manning up and taking the blame he blamed his teammates instead.

By all accounts, MacDonald is a great guy, but those comments were completely unwarranted. I chocked it up to him being frustrated that he lost and played poorly against his old team.

Although im not happy with seeing him in the jersey again, im actually decently excitied for this because i hope it means that ortio is going to get 90%+ of the games until Ramo gets healthy in which he will take over and ortio will start for the heat and Joey MAc can continue to be useless on the bench
