Another reason may be that Pelletier could use the first game to watch St. Louis from above with a coach and see how they play and ask questions. Maybe even to watch Huberdeau and Kadri to scope out them or other potential linemates.



Hopefully we see him in the rematch.
If it were true that the Flames didn't play him because of how he looked in a practice than his 95 AHL games, then I would be very concerned with the coach and front offices ability to evaluate talent, so I hope that isn't the case.
