I think that's the issue.
Pelletier isn't big enough to be a highly effective physical energy player
And he's not skilled enough to play up your lineup and on the PP.
I don't know what he is.

He isn't small by NHL standards and really, I don't see that as a detractor from his ability to be a pest/energy guy. There have been plenty of players with his size profile and lesser skill sets have solid two way "energy guy" careers.
Tyler Kennedy, Matt Cooke etc were not much different physically and Pelletier is still likely to add weight somewhat.
