Really?  As I understand it -- which isn't saying much -- _Saurornitholestes
sp._ (as in the undescribed Museum of the Rockies specimen) is a
non-troodontid dromaeosaur, potentially congeneric with _Bambiraptor_.
Maybe your matrix will change when the taxon is published and you have more
information.
