Riley Cote played 70 and 63 games 2 and 3 years ago, and played a grand total of 3 playoff games (all in 2007-8 when John Stevens didn't know what he was doing against the Caps--pretty sure that was the only series he played in).
These enforcer types show up in a fair number of games for their teams during the regular season, and seem to universally disappear with a quickness come playoff time (if the team has a better option, which we do).
If no one is going to fight him, then there's no point in having Shelley... it isn't like he is a good energy/hitter type.
