Andrew Mangiapane: our analysis

2025-26 season: 10 GP, 1 G, 1 A, 2 PTS, -2 +/-, 11:54 TOI. WAR 0.7 (208th of 615) · PAL 34, below average.

In 2025-26, Andrew Mangiapane, 30, posts a PAL Rating of 34 out of 100 (below average), and his WAR of 0.7 ranks 208th among 615 regulars, in the top half.

His strengths: discipline (73, above average). On the other hand, creation (13, among the weakest in the league) and power play (18, well below average) hold him back.

Breaking down his WAR (goals above average), his biggest contribution: EV offense (+0.9).

A marked decline: his PAL was 49 in 2024-25, against 34 now; his WAR went from 1.6 to 0.7.

Contract-wise, his Value score of 24 (very poor return) weighs his output against what he costs: 50 is what that salary should buy.

Andrew Mangiapane's story

Undrafted in the OHL priority draft, Mangiapane earned his chance in major junior as a free agent with the Barrie Colts after a strong season in the Greater Toronto Hockey League. Born April 4, 1996 in Bolton, Ontario, he climbed the junior ladder through speed and offensive instincts that made him stand out in Barrie.

With the Colts he moved quickly; named to the OHL First All-Rookie Team in 2013–14, he broke out in 2014–15 with a 104-point campaign (43 goals in 68 games). The following season he was entrusted with alternate-captain duties, a sign of the leadership role he had begun to assume on a high-scoring club.

Calgary selected him 166th overall in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft and signed him to an entry-level contract on March 23, 2016. He split time between the Stockton Heat in the AHL and the Flames early on, making his NHL debut on December 31, 2017 against Chicago. He registered his first NHL point on January 13, 2019 assisting Mark Giordano, and netted his first goal on February 9, 2019. A career milestone came in 2021–22 when he tallied 35 goals, followed by a three-year extension on August 2, 2022 with a $5.8 million average annual value.

Internationally, he was a driving force at the 2021 IIHF World Championship in Latvia: named the tournament MVP by the media after scoring seven goals and four assists in seven games, helping Canada win gold. He also rejoined Team Canada for the 2024 World Championship after the 2023–24 NHL season.

Mangiapane's game is defined by quickness and goal scoring. Though not a large player, he uses agility and puck protection to generate chances, play effectively in transition and provide consistent offensive production—traits that have kept him in prominent roles from junior hockey through the NHL.

WAR and PAL ratings, 2025-26

How we rate →

PAL Rating scores performance from 0 to 100 against players at the same position (50 = average player), starting from the player's strength, offensive or defensive. Value Rating compares that performance with what the player costs: 50 means paid what the play is worth.
