He could end up becoming a 50 point responsible centre but he could also remain a 25-30 point third liner who makes nearly 5 million. Hard to gauge his value.
There have been talk of the Canes buying him out because at his age, the buyout is 1/3 the contract value. KK will not cost a late 1st to acquire if we were indeed interested. I would expect a deal to look like:

Mangiapane (25%) retained + Cole Schwindt (or Solovyov)
