Ex-Crunch forward Craig MacDonald has landed a new job, and it's a long way from Syracuse.

MacDonald told me on Tuesday that he has signed a deal to play in Germany. He leaves this weekend. He said he had a couple of two-way offers here, but decided to move on. MacDonald went 15-25 in 40 games with Syracuse in 2008-09, and played eight games in Columbus.

"I'm tired of bouncing up and down, not knowing where I was going to be,'' said MacDonald, 32. "I've been thinking about it (going overseas) the last 2-3 years. You get more and more prepared. If I didn't go now and experience it, I may never go, right?''
