Steinberg is slamming his keyboard in anger - one less thing to beat into the ground all summer.

Default Flames extend Matt Coronato (7 years, 6.5M AAV)

Conny already has more +s on his GM resumé than Tre had his whole career here. Astute.

I’ll be interested to see if they stagger the expiry dates on their core players so that we don’t have so many coming up at the same time like we had with our previous core.

Great deal and getting it done “early” is awesome too!

I think Coronato has lots of upside as well!

Nice bit of business by Conroy. Sign the players early that you believe in, especially if they're American.

Interesting thought. Might happen but I doubt for that reason. Priority is getting term if a good young wants to sign for a palatable price

I thought no American born player would sign long term stay in Calgary, this is refreshing.

Awesome deal for everybody involved.

Good for Coronato to commit to this team at that price.

Conroy is the man.

So happy not only for Coronato but also Conroy for prioritizing things like this right away. Shows he wants you part of the organization and it was reciprocated by Coronato and his camp.

This also gives Coronato another chance at another 7-8 year deal after this one. Great deal all around.

You can put a check mark on one of the top 6 RW slots.

After the season was done you mentioned Connie had a contract ready for Matty. Props to you.

Great signing!

Reasonable chance of becoming the 10th Calgary Flame to 200
Goals- I suppose very outside chance of Kadri beating him to it

Great deal. Still getting over the sticker shock of the new salaries post cap inflation. This is like paying $4 / year a few years ago.

Definitely starting to get more excited about the flames future. Coronato, a Calder nominee in Wolf, and a top five prospect in Parekh. Great base to start. Go Conroy!

Incredible deal. $6.5M is not really that high of a salary in this league anymore. Coronato was also REALLY coming into his own the last third of the season, dude seemed to find his scoring groove for sure.
