As for Pelletier, he is small, but not outlandishly small like Phillips. He is roughly the same size as successful NHLers like Bratt, Konecny, Granlund, Kane, Keller, Garland, Point, and Kucherov for example. Try finding comparable and currently successful players to Phillips, who are 5'7" and 160 lbs.

Pelletier will be given a chance.

Only one you can point to is Caufield but Caufield weights 174lbs
