He needs ice time, and an opportunity.
I would much rather try to develop Coronato and see what we have with him, we are going to suck anyways. We don't need Necas and Kuzmenko blocking young players, and getting us 8-10 points in the standings.

If Coronato can't crack this top 9 this season, it's because he isn't that good right now and needs more time.
Most rebuilding teams that throw youth into the top line do so with youth that is named McDavid, MacKinnon, Matthews, Barkov, Bedard types. We are talking Coronato here. He likely needs time, and all our current young players could easily have their confidence crushed by getting killed on a nightly basis
Guys like Mcdavid and Matthews endured bad teams and were surrounded by a ton of youth as well, their confidence doesn't crushed because they are elite and scoring 60 goals and getting 150 points.
The Flames suck right now, don't have anyone that plays 22 mins a night. We can get ice for kids with Necas on the team.
