Fabbri’s Season Performance
On Monday, both Edmonton Oilers forward Andrew Mangiapane and defenceman Alec Regula successfully passed through waivers.
The pair are now qualified to be assigned to the AHL, which would provide the Oilers with some salary cap relief.
This season, Mangiapane has participated in 52 matches with Edmonton, achieving seven goals, 14 points, and a -19 plus/minus rating.
Career Statistics Overview
The 29-year-old player inked a two-year contract worth $7.2 million with the Oilers over the summer, and the current cap hit along with the contract duration is affecting his trade value.
If Mangiapane is assigned to the AHL, the Oilers will gain $1.15 million in cap space, which is the bury relief limit, while the remainder of his $3.6 million contract will still impact their salary cap.
Throughout his career, the 5-foot-10, 183-pound winger has recorded 130 goals and 257 points across 550 matches with the Oilers, Calgary Flames (2017-24), and Washington Capitals (2024-25).
