Coronato has two goals, no assists, two PIM and 10 hits in five appearances with the Flames in 2024-25. He's averaged 12:15 of ice time in the NHL this season, but he'll play a much bigger role in the minors.

Flames' Matthew Coronato: Scores pair of goals
Rotowire
Coronato scored twice on three shots and added three hits in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Coronato sat out the first two games of the year, but he's now played in two straight over Adam Klapka. While he's still in a fourth-line role, Coronato made a strong case to move up the lineup by opening and closing the scoring in Tuesday's win. The winger has added four hits and a plus-4 rating over his two appearances. If Coronato were to work his way into a top-nine role, it would likely be at the expense of Samuel Honzek, who has been unable to translate his strong preseason into regular-season success so far.

Flames' Matthew Coronato: Won't skate Thursday
Rotowire
Coronato (undisclosed) won't take part in Thursday's skate for maintenance reasons.
Coronato suffered the injury during Wednesday's preseason contest against Vancouver and exited the game in the third period as a result. The 21-year-old is fighting for a bottom-six role with the Flames, and an extended absence could hurt his chances of making the Opening Night roster.
