And that's fair. I had $3.5M x 2 yrs on my mind. A "show me" deal: nothing more, nothing less. If Mangiapane breaks out into that 60-point player people like SuperMatt18 are arguing he already is, then fine, good, throw money at him at that point. If he turns into an 85-point player like Brad Marchand, absolutely the Flames ought to get off their wallets and throw gobs of cash at him.
However, until I see any of that production actually happen, in "raw" numbers as Matt put it, as far as I'm concerned he hasn't earned a big deal and it's <insert your favourite synonym for crazy here, I'm tired of repeating myself> to suggest otherwise.
