In Philadelphia Flyers circles, Andrew MacDonald is more known for being the center of an ill-advised trade than for his actual hockey contributions.

The Flyers were nursing a one-goal lead late against the Minnesota Wild on Thursday when Wild center Mikael Granlund received the puck with a gaping net in front of him. At first it looked like Flyers goalie Michal Neuvirth had made the miraculous stop, but no.
