Playing career
Pelletier played college ice hockey with the New Hampshire Wildcats women's ice hockey program in the Hockey East (WHEA) conference of the NCAA Division I during 2015 to 2019. With the Wildcats, she scored 52 points across 143 games and was a three-season captain.[2] She garnered the nickname 'Mighty Mouse,' a recognition of her excellent play in defiance of her short stature.[3][4] She won the Hockey East Sportsmanship Award in 2019, becoming the second University of New Hampshire (UNH) player to win the award, after Sara Carlson.[5]
Following graduation in 2019, Pelletier opted to sign with the Buffalo Beauts of the National Women's Hockey League (NWHL). As a rookie in the 2019–20 NWHL season, she posted 21 points in 24 games – setting a league record for most power-play points in a season[6] – and was named to the 2020 NWHL All-Star Game.[7] She was also a finalist for the NWHL Newcomer of the Year award and was selected as one of the NWHL Fans’ Three Stars of the Year.[8]
In the 2020–21 season, she contributed 3 assists across 6 games in the Lake Placid bubble but the Beauts narrowly missed the playoffs. On 13 May 2021, Pelletier became the first player in the league to sign a contract for the 2021–22 season, returning to the Beauts for a third season. [9]
On April 1st, 2022, Pelletier announced her retirement via social media.[10]
