Yeah, Mangiapane is a core piece here. Mang is just a fantastic top-6 winger.
I could see Dube rather than Zary, but not Mang.
I’d even be more inclined to have it be Tkachuk and just draft picks. Tkachuk + ‘21 1st + ‘22 1st + ‘21 2nd would be cool to see. At this stage Buffalo has to be thinking of Wright/Bedard, so that could be pretty enticing. Sign Tkachuk long-term and give him the “C”, and then just have oodles of top-end prospects.
