After getting a taste of the NHL, Matt Coronato is ready to prove himself for Team USA at the 2023 IIHF World Hockey Championship.
The hope is this trip to worlds will provide a springboard-of-sorts for this emerging sharpshooter from Greenlawn, N.Y. It would be a confidence-booster to bury a few on the international stage. Coronato has been limited to 35 games so far this season — each of Harvard’s 34 contests and then his April 12 debut in the Flaming C — so even just logging some bonus icetime is a good thing.
While the Americans are sending a relatively inexperienced roster, Coronato should benefit from being around established NHLers such as Alex Tuch, Conor Garland and two-time Stanley Cup champion Nick Bonino. “I think it’s going to be great to play against men and play with older guys, kind of like when I was in Calgary for the last couple of weeks of the season,” Coronato said before departing for Munich, Germany, where Team USA gathered for a mini training camp. ”It’s about learning from guys and taking it all in, and I also think it’s going to be important for me to get used to playing against older, stronger guys. I think it will be great experience for me leading into camp.
