I've been more than impressed with Pelletiers usage and his ability to fit in. I have little doubt that Coronato can do it better and sooner.
Next season can't come soon enough because if the Flames play this right, Coronato will join for the final push this year, and then next year we have a whole platoon of youth coming in adding some of that hutzpah a lot of us would like to see with an injection of youth.
I'd wager we will have all of the big 4 prospects on the main roster next year, Pelts, Coronato, Zary and Wolf. Wolf bouncing back and forth.
IMO, if Tree is making moves, he's going after another RFA RHS fw. And then a d prospect or two.
In fact I bet the Flames draft heavy on D in this draft.

Agree with a lot of this. I would be a bit surprised though of Wolf is a regular next year. Certainly, he gets the call if there are injuries and he may get a spot start if the flames are well in, or out, of the playoffs at years end but I think he’s got another year or two of near full time AHL duty.
Could also see Zary spend most of next season with the Wranglers. Coronato is interesting. Do the Flames sign him as early as the end of the NCAA playoffs and get him in a game this season to burn an ELC year? Does he even want to sign??
I think Pelletier is full time next year and possibly Coronato. Zary and Wolf the year after
