Mitchell notched an assist and three blocked shots in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell played in a third-pairing role in his first game in two weeks. The 22-year-old blueliner hasn't been much of a scoring threat this season with five points and 21 shots on goal through 35 contests. He's added 34 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating.

Mitchell will enter the lineup Saturday against visiting Florida, Scott Powers of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mitchell will round out the Blackhawks defense corps and replace Nicolas Beaudin (healthy scratch) on the bottom pairing. He only has four points in 34 games this year, and as such, doesn't figure to make much of a fantasy splash Saturday.

Mitchell will join the active roster and play Thursday against the Red Wings, Carter Baum of the Blackhawks' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Adam Boqvist (concussion) and Calvin de Haan (hip) both sidelined, Mitchell will get an opportunity to crack the Blackhawks' lineup for the first time since March 25 against the Panthers. The 22-year-old blueliner has tallied four points while posting a minus-7 rating in 32 NHL appearances this season.

The 22-year-old blueliner has picked up four points while posting a minus-7 rating in 32 NHL games this campaign.
