Coleman is a good player that's contribution gets overlooked.
Strong defensively.
Skates well
Plays gritty
Strong PKer
Produces at 5v5 (62 5v5 points as a Flame ranks T-109 among NHL forwards, 1 behind $8.5M men in Horvat and Dubois)
He's exactly as advertised. I think I'd be open to moving him but I might wait a year because he could have value with a rising cap.
