I would trade Mangiapane without hesitation while his value is high. I think he has the highest value and his current year of goalscoring makes me feel like it won't be sustainable. He's not the key to chemistry of an entire line, he just has been a good opportunist this year. It reminds me a bit of the old Monahan days except Monaham would get his share of assists along with the 30 goals. In fact I would try to bundle Monahan's last year with Mangiapane's RFA rights together so someone will take on the salary so we can try to keep the rest together.
I would rather keep the chemistry of current D corp, including Zadorov and the character he brings than keep Mangiapane. That said, finding a way to keep the chemistry of Gaudreau, Lindholm, and Tkachuk together is paramount above all.
