Most of that not playing with other top line players on the team.
451 minutes at 5v5 with Lindholm
111 minutes at 5v5 with Gaudreau.
858 minutes at 5v5 with Tkachuk
1545 with none of them and in that time with none of them he's still put up:
56.6% Corsi For
73 GF
54 GA
57.5% GF%
57.3% XGF
$6M for Mangiapane would be perfectly fine and with more ice time (PP and 5v5) he could probably break out to a true top line talent.
Mangiapane-Lindholm-Tkachuk put up 2.89 xGF/60, 2.26 xGA/60 when they were a line.
Gaudreau-Lindholm-Tkachuk put up 3.23 xGF/60, 2.09 xGA/60 when they were a line.
So it would be a downgrade on out top line but maybe not as huge as you would think. The bigger issue might actually be replacing what Mangiapane brought to line two.

Mangiapane has made a believer out of me.
