Pelletier, 22, has three goals and four assists in 22 games for Calgary this season, often playing on one of the team’s top two lines as well as the power play.
Duehr has suited up in 16 games for the Flames this season, and has four goals and five points. The 25-year-old forward scored his fourth of the season in Tuesday’s 4-3 overtime loss to the Coyotes.
Nick Ritchie and Adam Ruzicka draw into the lineup in their place.
