RW Matthew Coronato - Calgary Wranglers, AHL (2021, 13th, CGY)

Honzek took his spot, not much else to say.

Be injuries and trades to make room for him. Honzek will likely go down as well at some point

This. Plan always seemed to be to ease him into things either with bottom 6 time or AHL time, then guaranteed top 6 time the last 3rd of the season after Mantha was gone. The fact he’s still with the team suggests he’s alternating in when Honzek undoubtedly sits a game or two, and potentially for if Honzek is sent down before Sharangovich is back.

Ya signing Mantha pretty much guaranteed it. Whatever, either Honzek and Coronato play or the vets play well and we can trade them.

Let the defense have 10-15 games to figure things out anyway. Likely be some ugly hockey at the start
