Coronato looks fine to me - he's keeping up with the play, handling the physicality, and generating some scoring chances. He'll continue to learn and get better.
I think some fans have unrealistic expectations - a lot of young guys start out like that: gangbusters for the first couple games, then struggle to be consistently good for a while. Pelletier was the same (as are most rookies)
Zary will almost certainly follow a similar path. And no doubt some fans will get frustrated and impatient with him too.
