I see Sharangovich overthinking when he's on the ice. He's scared to make a mistake, and he's reacting instead of anticipating, and it leads to him being late to plays and behind a step.
Some of that needs to be overcome with better efforts from him but he also needs to just have faith that he's going to be in a certain role on a certain line for a run of games for him to come out of it.
I don't think it's a coincidence that Coronato started to turn his game around now that he's gotten a run of games with the same linemates in the same role.

He’s played on the same line as Farabee the majority of the time, with different centers being tried out on the line (and one turn as a center himself).
It’s not like he’s working with totally different guys in different positions every game.
