"Andrew Mangiapane has a new home. Wednesday night, the Edmonton Oilers sent Mangiapane and a conditional 2027 first-round pick to the Chicago Blackhawks for forwards Jason Dickinson and Colton Dach. Mangiapane departs Edmonton after signing a two-year, $7.2 million ($3.6M AAV) contract with the Oilers this past summer."
"The 29-year-old winger struggled to fit in with Edmonton, posting just 14 points (7g, 7a) in 52 games this season, and the team has been poor at five-on-five with him on the ice. During Mangiapane's minutes, they posted a 47.8 expected goals percentage and were outscored 38-21, a team-worst minus-17 mark."
"Dickinson, 30, is set to be an unrestricted free agent in July. The former 22-goal scorer has 13 points (6g, 7a) in 47 games this year and will be a cheaper bottom-six option for the Oilers. Dach, 23, is in the middle of his first full NHL season after splitting time between the Blackhawks and the AHL's Rockford IceHogs last year."
The Edmonton Oilers acquired forwards Jason Dickinson and Colton Dach from the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for Andrew Mangiapane and a conditional 2027 first-round pick. Mangiapane, who signed a two-year, $7.2 million contract with Edmonton last summer, struggled to fit with the team, recording only 14 points in 52 games. The Oilers posted poor five-on-five metrics during his ice time with a 47.8 expected goals percentage and minus-17 rating. Mangiapane waived his no-trade clause to facilitate the deal. Dickinson, 30, becomes an unrestricted free agent in July and provides a cheaper bottom-six option with 13 points in 47 games. Dach, 23, is an Alberta native in his first full NHL season. Chicago retained 50 percent of Dickinson's $4.25 million salary.
