In a way Mangiapane is in a better position than Tkachuk. He has produced mainly without Gaudreau and mainly even strength. He seems to have some upward growth potential still, given his minutes and progression. He can argue a long term deal is worth it. And other teams probably see that too.

Mangiapane has 132 career points
Tkachuk had 104 this season
He is not anywhere near a better position
