Player Discussion Matt Coronato
- Thread starter Craig Ludwig
- Start date
It's not controversial or worrying in the slightest. He's young. Young players take time, outside of the top level picks.. and even then sometimes. He'll be fine. He'll be back. He didn't deserve top minutes by game 10 here, so let him get going in the AHL doing top line.
Pospisil earned it. He's looked good in the AHL and this is how you reward that. It's exactly what we want to see happening for the farm players who work hard and have success.
Not a big deal overall, but certainly exciting for Pospisil and his family I'm sure. Hopefully he is pumped up and shows well.

I actually like the fact he was sent down actually. He needs to play 20ish minutes, beat up on some easier competition and gain some confidence.

I think most of us were relieved he was sent down. Needs to get some big minutes in the AHL and just get his confidence back back up. All part of the process with these young guys.

He's got the NHL talent already but isn't ready to play in an NHL system lots of little errors/plays that aren't working for him.
Should see a few chances this year and I don't think anyone is worried about him in the long-term.

He may blossom or may become another Dube or worse
But in this stupid system, nobody produces, not even if you pay them 7M or even 10.5M

This guy is the real deal, I'm certain he'll be a top line RW for us. It's hard not to get excited about Zary after his display last game because if he can maintain that style of play, it'll be a huge help to realizing Coronato's potential.
As much as Coronato has tried to be that puck carrying guy, he'd be much better in that gunslinger/finisher role, playing sidekick to a quality centre.

Agreed. I think he has the NHL talent but not the stamina to survive the NHL grind. Build that endurance in the AHL, aim to be fill time next season.

4 goals and 7 points in 5 games since being assigned.
One more good game and I think he's back up.

It's a 22-man roster at the moment, so nobody.
But I think Coronato should stay down a while and have so e sustained success.

I would love to see that. I am very serious, there's no point in bringing up Coronato and playing him 10 minutes on 3rd/4th line, and the same goes for the other two, they're better off playing 20 minutes for Wranglers than playing 4th line minutes once Coronato takes one of their spots.

And so it begins. In a shocking twist, overloading the team with vets has started to piss off the prospects. Who could have possibly imagined that happening

if Coronato wants to play in the NHL, he needs to f***ing earn it. He hasn't been good outside the first game after Honzek was hurt.
Also an agent retweeting something overhyping his client is a big f***ing nothing.
Also TWC should never f***ing be used as a source for anything, they are the absolute worst Flames blog that only cares about being clickbait

He should be playing over Klapka easily. That Lomberg-Costco-Coronato line looked good that game he got 2.
…this is literally part of an agents job, spreading any news that hypes up his client. Show me an agent who likes the news of his client getting sent down and it’s a story. Now if he releases a statement, we should be worried.
Do people think players pay agents to negotiate a contract then to play solitaire until they need another one in 8 years?
