The only thing that I can think of is that Mangiapane wants a one way contract and is not being offered one. The only way that he can 'bet on himself' is if he is in the NHL, and there has to be at least a little pressure on keeping him up, if he can produce. From that perspective, I can see him digging his heels in.
