Mangiapane is not worth much. I don’t know why Calgary seems to think he is worth a lot?
I don't think Mangiapane is worth a whole lot. However here's why Flames fans love Mangiapane:
1. He's a homegrown talent taken in the 6th round. He kept beating the odds and getting better.
2. He plays much bigger than he is, and with some snarl
3. He's like a dog on a bone, and he finds a way to come out with the puck more often than not
4. He goes to the net and the hard areas
5. He's very good defensively, and has great analytics
6. He scored 35 goals, through hard work, and it didn't look like a fluke
7. His game much like Bennett's, seems as though it gets better in the playoffs.
