Pietrangelo hype on these boards is out of control. Not saying he shouldn't garner some votes but the fact there's 11 votes for him, and the next highest is 2, is ridiculous.

Let's take a look:

Dustin Byfuglien - Consecutive 53 point seasons, the most recent one being in 66 games (a 66 point pace over a full season).
Drew Doughty - Career high of 59 points and just coming off a playoff series where he posted 16 points in 20 games (66 point pace over a full-season)
Weber - Career high 53, averaged 48.5 points past two seasons.
Pietrangelo - Career high 51 (last season).

Not saying Pietrangelo shouldn't garner some votes but looking purely at proven performance this should worst case scenario be a 2-man or 3-man race, not a homerun for the young guy.
