Mitchell to sign extension with Kings

[Teagz]

As reported by Rich Hammond, the Kings are expected to announce later today they’ve signed defenseman Willie Mitchell to a two-year contract extension.

Mitchell, 34, logs 21:46 per game, including a team-high 3:36 on the league’s fifth-ranked penalty kill. With Jack Johnson in Columbus now, his ice time could feasibly increase.

Mitchell’s current cap hit is $3.5 million.

Good for him. I've always liked the guy. Truly was a class act when he was with Van.
