All despite playing against elite competition night in and night out on the shutdown line.
By all accounts, Mangiapane produced like a first liner offensively 5v5 last season.
By all accounts, Mangiapane was also a beast defensively with incredible possession + scoring chance rates.

You are understating your case He had 17 ES goals. and 31 ES pts
It would almost seem that the Flames organization was suppressing his stats by keeping him off the PP.
BUT then you would have to consider that Gaudreau 12 ES goals and Monahan 14 did not do as much as Mangiapane to get the PP time.
If Mangiapane were to replace either one of them as a PP shooter would the Flames have a better PP?
