He's so done with Montgomery

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

I would not mind if Calgary claimed him. We are currently running a mix of Oesterle, Gilbert, and DeSimone as our rotating 3rd pair. Would need to pass one through waivers but that's hardly a big deal imo

 

[TLEH]

He is too soft.

 

[JaegerDice]

Ian Mitchell sucks.

 

[WarriorofTime]

I’d expect him to clear again. I don’t think he is particularly likely to get a 1-way deal again.

 

[Juxtaposer]

This kid was so good at the NCAA level, kind of a bummer he didn’t translate to the NHL.

 

[The Hockey Tonk Man]

This will be a common thread this season

Some team may take a chance on him but he’ll more than likely be back on waivers

 

[Esq]

To say this kid’s pro career is disappointing would be an understatement. Had really high hopes for him out of college.

 

[Naster Okan]

He’s no Alex Vlasic.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Mitchell just isn't an NHL defender

Will be in Europe in a few years or will have to accept career as AHL defender

 

[ColbyChaos]

I really hope @Kevin Musto didnt get an Ian "Norris" Mitchell ass tattoo yet

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Simply not close to NHL talent.

3 hits in 13 games requires a level of commitment to avoiding contact as well.

 

[CDJ]

If you’re gonna play soft you at least have to produce offensively

He’s an 8th/9th defenseman imo

Wow Cancell Culture Strikes Again.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

He clears, no new waivers today.

He is fine for a dozen games when you are riddled with injuries. Seems like a guy that will get some two way contracts for a few years and end up as an AHL offensive defenseman that serves as your 8th or hopefully 9th D.

Are you actually mixing up Mitch Miller and Ian Mitchell ????
