    Default Mitchell will not be re-signed by the Kings

    Can confirm that Kings won't be re-signing Willie Mitchell: "Unfortunately, no room." Was a huge part of that team.

    He's getting up there in age + they have solid younger alternatives.

    True, but this guy was a pretty solid piece back there for this team. Don't think he wont be missed.

    No he'll definitely be missed but when push comes to shove he's the more obvious odd man out.

    They sure could use him. Generally young D-men playing with Mitchell see growth in their game...

    I think a lot of teams would be wise to sign him for a couple years, especially teams with young D.
    He may have lost a step but he's as positionally sound as they come, he would be an excellent mentor for many teams to show the youngsters how to shut down opponents

    Mitchell would be a good signing for team like Colorado, especially if they lose Stastny.

    Really young team overall, could use a veteran depth guy on the blue line.

    Sounds like he wont be out of a job for long. I read earlier he wants to play for two more years.

    Heard from the Willie Mitchell camp. Five teams have reached out so far. More likely tomorrow.

    Mitchell won't have any problem finding a new home and will get decent dollars. San Jose would be wise to jump all over this, this could be a key piece to help that core finally take the next step.

    Would be great to see him in Edmonton, but no one signs in Edmonton for less that 200% more than their actual value.
