Ever since being drafted nearly six years ago, Andrew Mangiapane’s game has been steadily improving as he has developed from a rather unknown prospect, to a promising youngster, to a bonafide NHLer, and now to a legitimate play driver at the NHL level.
Mangiapane’s growth has been a treat to watch from a fan perspective as the forward worked his way up through the OHL, AHL, and now NHL ranks to where he is today. After a couple of solid AHL seasons, he became a full time Flame in 2018-19 and showed spurts of greatness, which only increased in regularity as the season continued and culminated with an impressive 32 points in 68 games in 2019-20.
