Mangiapane\u2019s 2-year, $7.2M deal with Edmonton ($3.6M AAV) includes a full NTC in the first year and 5-team trade list in year two.<\/p>\n
Reaction from the hockey world? Here are highlights:<\/p>\n
The Athletic\u2019s stat analyst Dom Luszczyszyn\ud83d\udcc8 @domluszczyszyn
A perfectly fair deal for Andrew Mangiapane as a top nine guy, but there\u2019s probably some upside here if the Oilers use him in a top six role.<\/p>\n
Oilers fan Adam @OilersAdam
Andrew Mangiapane took less money to be in Edmonton. Love this signing.<\/p>\n
Rangers fan Leo @Leo__260
This year\u2019s Arvidsson and Skinner<\/p>\n
Oilers fan Joel Bacon @JoelBacon76
I was excited last year when they signed Arvidsson and Skinner. In my mind I was picturing 2016 versions of both of those players so I let it slide about Holloway and Broberg. I\u2019ll reserve judgement on this until Mangie proves himself. Fool me once, as the saying goes\u2026<\/p>\n
Oilers fan Doppa D @Doppa_D
Solid add\u2026 was always a fan of his. Now sign Isaac Howard too and we\u2019re starting to cook.<\/p>\n
The Athletic Winnipeg hockey writer Murat Ates @WPGMurat
I like this player, particularly for that price. Edmonton did well here.<\/p>\n
Oilers Now host Bob Stauffer @Bob_Stauffer
Andrew Mangiapane scored 35 goals with Calgary in 2021-22.
Was 5th in TOI on both the Flames PP and PK amongst FWDs in his final 3 seasons in Calgary.
Will get an extended look in the Edmonton Oilers top -6. Had offers North of 4M AAV.<\/p>\n
Oilers fan Oilers-4-Life @oilers_life
Notice how Bob (Stauffer) says \u201cmiddle-6\u201d winger not top-6. This means Andrew Mangiapane and not Brock Boeser. A very underwhelming offseason with the no upgrade in net. The mismanagement that has occurred during McDavid\u2019s era has been nothing short of pathetic.<\/p>\n
Sportsnet Calgary\u2019s Eric Francis @EricFrancis
Andrew Mangiapane is an Edmonton Oiler.
Wow.<\/p>\n
Oilers fan Karman Gill @Kgill39
Mangiapane spent majority of his last season with Lars Eller and scored 14 goals.
Arvidsson spent a lot of his time with Leon and scored 15 goals.
Hmm..<\/p>\n
Oilers fan DNL @OilerAnalytics
Even strength goals the last 3 seasons:
\u2022 Andrew Mangiapane (39)
\u2022 Corey Perry (30)
\u2022 Connor Brown (16)<\/p>\n
Oilers fan Mark \ud83d\udcf8 @TheLineBlender
RNH-Frederic-Mangiapane would be the best 3rd line the Oilers have ever seen<\/p>\n
Calgary Flames website Matchsticks & Gasoline @MatchsticksCGY
At least Edmonton is spending their limited space on Mangiapane instead of goaltending or defence upgrades.<\/p>\n
Oilers fan Kennedy @kennedystrash
You have to say Andrew Mangiapane in the thickest Italian accent possible. this is the only way<\/p>\n
Edmonton Journal hockey writer Jim Matheson @jimmathesonnhl
Mangiapane\u2019s agent is Allan Roy who also reps Frederic. Fair money and term for legit top 9 winger who is somewhere between the 35 goal seemingly out of body experience he had one year in Calgary and last year\u2019s 14 in Washington. Best bet he is 20-20 guy<\/p>\n
Oilers Nation writer Zach Laing @zjlaing
The oilers did right by letting klingberg, perry, and brown walk at the prices they signed for. mangiapane is some tidy work and the oilers are in the green.<\/p>\n
Oilers fan Klima\u2019s Lid @thackattack41
The spelling of Mangiapane on Oilers Twitter for the next 2 years is going to be horrifying, considering half of you can\u2019t even spell Stecher correctly\u2026Last season, Mangiapane\u2019s offensive production decreased; however, he averaged 3 fewer minutes of ice time per game than what he previously received in CGY. In addition, his primary C was Lars Eller with rotational Ws filling in. Context is important.<\/p>\n
Oilers fan Adhi @OilerAlert
It\u2019s quite likely that Mangiapane is the biggest addition of the off-season<\/p>\n
Oilers fan Dyl @dhockey13
We are about to run it back with Skinner and Pickard and our big \u201cadd\u201d is going to be Mangiapane.<\/p>\n
Former MC79 blogger and Oilers fan Dennis King @DKingBH
Turns out nothing went in the net with Mangiapane and Eller together. Once you separated them? Both were better<\/p>\n
Oilers fan Paul Almeida @AzorcanGlobal
Mangiapane scored 35 goals in 2021-22 with the #Flames
Not big but has a high compete & skill level.
Scored 14G 14A last year for the #Caps in a bottom 6 role with Lars Ellers as his C with about 13 mins of ice time.
He should be able to PK as well.<\/p>\n
NHL player analyst HockeyIceStorm @HockeyIceStorm
Mangiapane is an energetic, high-IQ winger who finds seams & finishes with flair\u2014especially in special teams\u2014but at just 5\u201910\u201d, his impact fluctuates in physical play & can fade without consistent linemates. Middle 6 depth for Oilers \ud83d\udc4d\ud83c\udffc<\/p>\n
PuckPedia @PuckPedia
So who is left?
There are 5 players remaining who scored 39+ points last year:
Ehlers
Suter
Dadonov (contract terms o\/s)
Grzelchyk
Roslovic<\/p>\n
After signing Mangiapane for $3.6M, #LetsGoOilers have $951K Projected Cap Space with 22 active players (13F7D\/2G)
