They're very different players.
Dube I see as a guy who will dominate possession with his forechecking, and shiftness. Compared to Flames/Former Flames, he's somewhere between Backlund and Byron in terms of what he could bring (not a talent comparision).
Mangiapane I see as a pure winger who can play a strong two-way game when needed, but has offensive zone flair and a high-end shot. He's somewhere closer to a mix of Fleury and Cammalleri (again, not a talent comparision).
Ranking them comes down to what the team needs are as much as their individual ability level. It'd even be interesting to see them on a 4th line together.
