Maybe we don't want him then!

Coronato could make the decision to finish his education at the most prestigious University in North America and get his pick of 32 teams to sign with (many who will put him right into the lineup) or he could sign here where it appears the coach wants players to spend years in the minors before they get a shot. Play in the AHL for the next 2 years or play in the NCAA?
He can also easily force his way out like Fox did if he wants to sign sooner but not here.
I am not saying he will do any of this but when attending Harvard the player has more leverage as staying and completing that degree is not a terrible consolation to pick any team you want to sign with when it is over
