All the comparison means (re: Poirier) is they’re late 1st round picks that don’t do any one thing that jumps out at me to identify them as special players.

Don’t take my Pelletier criticisms too seriously, I don’t know anything about him. But that’s kinda the point - An ‘if he was worth hearing about, I’d have heard about him’ sorta thing.
I don't like this comparison, because in the first two years after he was drafted Poirier looked like a real sleeper. He was tracking extremely well to be an impact player in the NHL until his second pro year when substance abuse derailed his career. If Pelletier looks anything now like Poirier did in his D+1 and D+2 season, that's a really good thing.
