xGF% is his team's share of 5v5 expected goals while he was on the ice, from our own expected goals model; HDCF% counts only high-danger chances (xG of 0.15 or more). IPP is the share of his team's 5v5 goals while he was on the ice that he scored or assisted on. Relative stats compare him with his team when he was off the ice. Goals above expected and ixG/60 use his own shots at all strengths. PDO and OZS% describe luck and deployment, so their bars are grey.

Play styleDefensive complementary winger

Trait percentiles vs. NHL wingers · 2025-26

Mangiapane plays a responsible two-way game with strong defensive instincts and modest offensive production. He avoids mistakes with solid puck management but generates few scoring chances and rarely initiates offensive plays.

Where he shoots from

Slot 56% · Mid-range 33% · Perimeter 11%(94 unblocked shots)

Strengths

Defensive impact in the 71st percentile makes him effective in his own zone
Forechecking and physicality both around league average show reliable two-way engagement
Puck management (41st percentile) keeps him reliable with the puck despite low volume

Watch-outs

Shooting volume (12th percentile) means he creates almost no scoring chances himself
Playmaking (29th percentile) limits his ability to set up teammates or drive offense
Rush chances (37th percentile) suggest he struggles to gain the offensive zone quickly

Built from play-by-play, shift data, and NHL EDGE tracking. Zone entries is an estimate (rush chances while he is on the ice) until tracking data is added.

Goalies are measured by goals saved above expected.
