Coronato is not a middle six player, middle six players generally don’t project to be 30 goal guys. You score 25-30 goals in this league you are in the top 60-75 goal scorers in the league. That is not a third line player.

Zary at worst is a second line player in the league, definitely not a third liner.

IMO they should not trade picks and should be looking for ways they can get picks like the Mangiapane trade. But they don’t need to bottom out, that is not a necessary step to build a championship calibre team.
