Coronato and Marchessault are both listed at 183 lbs right now. There is a reason Coronato's nickname is Bison and it's because he is heavy and strong for his size and would drive his way to the net.

And I doubt Marchessault weighted that at 22 years old. Marchessault was listed at 174 when he was 22 in his first season with Columbus, Pelletier was listed at 170 last season in his first NHL season.

Pelletier is lighter right now for sure but his game is anything but soft. He's tenacious and gritty and that's what people like about him.

Thinking either Pelletier or Coronato play soft games is pretty funny TBH because neither guy plays anything remotely close to "soft" hockey. Writing those guys off as guys who can't play playoff hockey due to their size is a ridiculous take.
