GP | G | A | P | 5v5 P | P1 | 5v5 P1 | NHLe | |
Up to date | 21 | 11 | 9 | 20 | 13 | 16 | 11 | 37.95 |

Pelletier’s been a bit quiet offensively since returning from his concussion, but he had a nice week this week with three points in three games. The relative lack of offense is a little concerning, but the Wildcats are also super stacked and rolling lines instead of leaning heavily on Pelletier’s line.

Up to date | 27 | 2 | 2 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 7.24 |
