Flyers’ MacDonald out a week with lower-body injury

The Philadelphia Flyers announced Thursday that defenseman Andrew MacDonald is sidelined for about one week with a lower-body injury.

MacDonald has recorded three points in 10 games this season. The 30-year-old blue-liner split last season between Philadelphia and Lehigh Valley, the club's AHL affiliate.

Defenseman Nick Schultz draws into the lineup Wednesday when the Flyers face the New York Islanders, reports Sam Carchidi of The Philadelphia Inquirer.
