Yes he does and I'm glad that's done . He's been the most consistant force back there all year and a true leader.

Awesome.. probably my favorite defensemen the Kings have had in a long time. I would have been content to sell 2 days ago but I'd rather see the team compete and he is an integral part of the defense. And he kinda looks like Bababooey in a weird way.

Good stuff. Reading Hammond's comments shaking my head at people who say "boy I bet Vancouver misses Mitchell now!"
Alain and his giant head are going to cry themselves to sleep on their 84pts in 61 games pillow.
