Andrew Mangiapane should be a strong candidate to make Team Canada at the 2022 Olympics

The Calgary Flames have a budding star on their hands in Andrew Mangiapane.

The 25-year-old winger is currently tied for second in the entire National Hockey League with 15 goals in 19 games this season.

Who else has 15 in 19? Why, none other than Alex Ovechkin, who recently passed Brett Hull for fourth place on the NHL’s all-time goal-scoring leaderboard.

Ovechkin has been a mainstay at or near the forefront of the Rocket Richard Trophy race for nearly every season of his lengthy NHL career. Edmonton Oilers cornerstone Leon Draisaitl, who currently leads the league with 18 goals in 17 games, is a former 50-goal scorer who also has an Art Ross Trophy to his name.
