Coronato underwent an MRI that revealed an undisclosed injury, resulting in him being pulled from the Team USA roster Monday for the 2025 IIHF World Championship.
The Flames didn't offer any specifics regarding the nature or severity of Coronato's injury, though they did call it a "preventative decision." In his first full NHL campaign, the 22-year-old winger notched 24 goals and 23 helpers in 77 regular-season games this year. Barring a long-term injury, Coronato should be capable of building on that production heading into the 2025-26 campaign.

Flames' Matthew Coronato: Plucks apple in win
Rotowire
Coronato notched an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Kings.
Coronato was superb late in the season, earning four goals and four assists to close the campaign on a seven-game point streak. The 22-year-old had a total of 47 points (24 goals, 23 assists), 180 shots on net and a plus-6 rating over 77 appearances. Coronato could be in consideration for Team USA at the 2025 IIHF World Championship if he's feeling well enough to play after his first full NHL season. However, he's a restricted free agent this summer and may not want to risk his health in an international tournament if he doesn't have a new contract in hand. In any case, this season established Coronato as a top-six option for the Flames moving forward.

Rotowire

Flames' Matthew Coronato: Scores twice on Long Island
Rotowire
Coronato netted two goals on three shots and went plus-4 Saturday in a 4-3 overtime win over the Islanders.
In his first game at UBS Arena against his hometown team, Coronato helped his club earn a critical two points while reaching the 20-goal mark in the process. Both of his markers were set up by Jonathan Huberdeau at even strength. This was Coronato's first multi-goal performance since Jan. 30, but he's found the back of the net in three consecutive games. The right-shot winger's stock is on the rise in his first full NHL campaign, and he'll boost his value for 2025-26 fantasy drafts if he continues to produce down the stretch. He's recorded 17 helpers, 37 points, three game-winning goals, 148 shots on net and a plus-8 rating through 64 appearances in 2024-25.

Rotowire
Coronato scored an empty-net goal, added two hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.
Coronato had just 11:44 of ice time Tuesday, his lowest total since Oct. 24.

Coronato is up to 16 tallies, 32 points, 129 shots on net and a plus-5 rating through 56 appearances in a strong first full campaign at the NHL level, especially considering the Flames' overall scoring troubles.
