Fans seem to latch on to players for their disapproval. He's been a target.

He's played with backlund and coleman mostly so yeah I think his metrics are because of them.
I never liked Mangiapane from day 1 even when he was scoring on 1 of 3 or 4 shots he'd take. He tried hard his first few seasons and then seemed to mail it in.
I think this team will be better off without him not because I hate him but because I didn't think he was ever that good.
