I agree that Honzek has to be in the A, I don't think there is much of a valid debate to the contrary. Give him a few games at some point, later in the year, as a taste, but otherwise, let him grow and work on his game.
Coronato is the tough one. I don't think he has much more to learn at the AHL level, and he has probably earned a spot, but having him and Honzek playing together for the Wranglers is also very enticing. A line of:
Honzek - Morton/Lipinski - Coronato
would be fun to watch. Or maybe Schwindt.
