Its moot. They’ll put him on Backlind the problem solver’s line and Pelts will be fine.
People woulda had a meltdown if we traded Pelts at the draft for a 3rd or 4th rounder, by trading him now you aren’t dealing from a position of strength and other GMs will know that. I’d rather see how he does in the AHL if he clears and if not he’s gone and Honzek or Coronato’s path to NHL is better. He doesn’t look irreplaceable, I think we have a few just like him that can play 3rd or 4th line minutes and make a bigger impact.
