  1. He's been a passenger since he signed his big contract. I'm glad you guys are finally putting it out there, that he's been a major disappointment.

  2. he needs to be traded this offseason way too many wingers and we’re stalling the development opportunities of other, higher potential long term options in our system that would be better utilized in his spot in the lineup. can’t stand how much he falls over and does nothing when given the puck

  3. If he played with Backs and Coleman all year, I think he would have a different season, maybe not 35 goals again, but I think he’d be a lot more impactful.

  4. I disagree with this take. Mangiapane has been good- he’s not great but he’s a solid player and possesses speed that breaks through the offensive zone. He’s got a good read of the game and is smart defensively.

  5. his mom was my elementary hockey coach and andrew came to some of our practices! great guy and he’ll turn it around

  6. Maybe, just maybe, his 30+ goal season was an absolute outlier where he played on one of the greatest Flames teams in recent memory. Like, did you expect his near 20% shooting percentage to be sustainable? He's been fantastic in his own end on that 3rd line. Hes on pace for career highs in hits and blocks, has a positive Corsi, Fenwick, and +/-, all while receiving a career high in defensive zone starts.

  7. This guy was one of the most noticeable players on the ice the last couple years. He forechecked like a pitbull. I can honestly say I've barely noticed him on the ice a handful of times this year. I honestly forget he even plays for the Flames.
