If he can return what he did, a 28 year old former 35 goal scorer and likely 20 to 25 goal scorer at 50 percent for an entire season should return more than a measly 4th.

To me the best trade comparison for Mangiapane is Artturi Lehkonen. Lehkonen returned Justin Barron and a 2nd round pick when he was traded.
Many on CP are overly down on Mangiapane for no reason except their own expectations being too high.
