We will see all the experimental stuff in 5 or 6 games time, no need to worry. A night watching won't hurt Coronato nor would sending him back down to ramp up for his playoffs.

Agree. I recall an interview, Conroy said he went downstairs to talk to ask Huska about a player lower down in the lineup, making he was giving the young guys opportunities. When Coronato was sent down he said he had a talk with him like all of his players that are sent down that he had to make the most of the opportunities when he got back up. If they are not hungry enough they won't stay in the lineup, but Conroy definitely wants them playing and not lower down in the lineup. Pelletier it's more likely a conditioning thing, he came back from a serious injury and then was reinjured. He just needs more playing time so he can get back to where he can play at higher level.
Injuries can be tricky and I'm glad we're not trying to force our players to play. I thought we let Sean Monahan play way too much with his ongoing injuries. Coronato showing some good signs, I agree with those that think he should be playing with Backlund and Coleman.
Eat bread is the guy that should be showing a little more, we seem to get just the odd flashes from him.
