Also a good chance that Mangiapane just demands too much money. He's having a great season, but he's the kind of player, that if we paid him $7million/year and he started showing any kind of regression he'd quickly become the whipping boy.
I love Mangiapane, but don't think he's worth top dollar. A trade and overpay/sign has Montreal written all over it.
Obviously, if the Flames can work some cap magic and get Mangiapane signed at a reasonable contract, that's preferable, but I'm not sure it can happen.
