Well, Walker?

He is a 40 pt under sized winger who makes way more money than that should require.

29 goals in his last 142 games.

Coleman has 25 in 61 this season alone for a million dollars less.

On the same line.

Sorry...Mangiapane is not under valued "around this site", he is in fact over valued instead by many.

I'd rather hang onto Manpiapane in hopes he busts out in his contract year. It's not like the Flames cant afford his cap.

He's paid to produce at 5v5, not just score goals at 5v5. And for the most part he's produced at 5v5 about what expected.

He's third on the team in 5v5 points among forwards with 26 (behind only Coleman and Kadri).

Those 26 points also tie him for 81st in the NHL among forwards...with notable names like Ryan O'Reilly, Ryan Nugent Hopkins, Clayton Keller, Chris Kreider, Tyler Toffoli, Pavel Buchnevich, Cole Caufield. Or 1 5v5 point behind Matthew Tkachuk.

He get's blamed on this site not for what he is, but for what people wanted him to be. People wanted him to be a 30 goal, and 60 point winger...which is fine, but it was always going to be tough for him to do that without top unit PP time and more ice time overall.

As it is he's easily a top 6 forward in the NHL (there are 192 top 6 forwards by defininition in the NHL, and this would put him around the middle of the pack being ranked 81st in points)

Moving him 1 for 1 for Cody Glass who has all of 10 points this season would be a big mistake.

No they don’t have their first and no need for Hanifin since they got Miltstad

No one was saying Mangiapane ain’t overpaid. His production the past 4 years has been second liner level production and lots of people on here talk about him like a bottom 6er

That line is typically the only thing keeping there team alive every year.

Weren’t there rumours that mangi doesn’t want to be on the checking line and wants more PP time?

What does Middlestadt have to do with needing Hanifin?

I'd argue he's not even that overpaid. By like a mil, maybe. People talk like he makes 8 mil a year

He wants a change of scenery.

"no need" haha

[Ashasx]

do people realize cody glass is about to turn 25

[Bingo]

Love the 200 foot, good in all zones, produces at 5 on 5 hockey player.

Mangiapane has tremendous value in my books.

They traded Byram for Mittelstadt. They need Hanifin more now, just don't have a lot left in terms of tradeable assets to acquire him.

Yup, still think he can break out with the right opportunity.

Yes they do still have their 2024 1st.

at $5.8, I am not sure he has TREMENDOUS value, but I get your point....

[dammage79]

I'd do Glass for Mang in a heartbeat. Center for a winger, that's the pay I do it.

The cap hit hurts his overall playing value. He's overpaid by 2 million. And he's only looked decent this year on the Backs Coleman line.

And I'm kind of over watching him blow 12 tires a game.

That’s unfortunate to hear

How come?

[dino7c]

Mangiapane is a solid NHLer but he got the contract he did because he scored goals and there was a belief he would continue to do so. He is overpaid now but its not like the Flames are hurting for cap space.
