Coronato all the way down at 24. I think in a few years we may look back at this and laugh.

Which I think is natural.

The guy has only played 112 NHL games and hasn't earned that position yet.

On his pace he could be top 15 on this list in a few seasons.

It's hard to rank a guy with two seasons versus players who performed well over a career (I know we've ranked Parekh way up there with no track record at all).

Yes but I think it's fair to predict how a player's career may unfold, and rank him based on that. Otherwise guys who haven't played a whole career (or not played at all) are at a huge disadvantage.

We seemed willing to do it for Parekh and Wolf, but not for Coronato. I'm not sure why.

Plett was a Calder winner, if that counts.

Absolutely.

You can vote how you wish, but clearly others aren't voting that way or he'd be higher.
