I do wonder why Coronato has not been tried on a line with someone like Huberdeau for very long. If they are looking for someone with a good shot who has a shoot first mentality… doesn’t Coronato fit that description more than anyone else? I would be more confident in Coronato getting to 300 shots on net in a full season with Huberdeau.

If he does start shooting and scoring then by all means put him in a position to pump his numbers up before the deadline, but if he starts flat and doesn't show anything in 10 games I hope the Flames cut the loss and waive him allowing Coronato or Honzek to play.
