Yeah, Pettit is a strong defensive forward but his offence was so lacking until this year it was pretty clear he's a very long shot to make it as an NHL'er. He's showed good strides this year in adding some offence while continuing to be solid defensively, but he's still a long shot.

Cassels though, didn't expect quite that many votes for him across multiple categories. Deserves it though!
