Mitchell signed a one-year deal with Lausanne of the Swiss league.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell logged 60 games last season split between Montreal and Los Angeles, in which he tallied a mere 11 points. Without a deal in hand, the 33-year-old will look to continue playing professionally abroad. If it is the end of the center's time in the NHL, he will wrap up his career with 67 goals, 85 helpers and 351 PIM in 666 contests.

Mitchell scored a goal against the Avalanche on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell's tally ended a 16-game pointless streak that also saw him serve as a healthy scratch on three occasions. The center saw just 8:27 of ice time versus Colorado, but was still able to find the back of the net on his lone shot of the game. Without more minutes, the Quebec native will remain a low-end fantasy option.

Mitchell collected an assist, two PIM and two hits through just 9:04 of ice time during Monday's 4-1 win over Philadelphia.

EDGE Analysis

The speedy veteran has now recorded two goals and an assist through his past four contests. There's a chance Mitchell is just settling into his new surroundings, but it's probably best to temper fantasy expectations given his depth role and limited minutes.

Contrary to an earlier report that indicated Mitchell would join the Kings in St. Louis ahead of Friday's matchup with the Blues, he'll actually meet his teammates in Chicago for Sunday's game against the Blackhawks, Jon Rosen of Fox Sports West reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell's immigration paperwork has been completed, so he should be ready to enter the lineup and make his Kings debut Sunday in Chicago. The veteran pivot, who went scoreless in 11 games with the Canadiens before being dealt to the Kings on Nov. 23, will likely occupy a bottom-six role Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell should still be considered a game-time decision for Friday's tilt, but if he's able to go, he'll likely slot into a bottom-six role against the Blues. The 32-year-old pivot went scoreless in 11 games with the Canadiens before being dealt to the Kings on Nov. 23.

Mitchell (personal) is projected to be scratched from Friday's matchup with St. Louis, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell's visa woes continue to drag out, as he will miss his fifth straight game due to this ongoing issue. Fantasy owners will need to continue to closely monitor this situation which seems to be rather fluid, considering the center was expected to have everything cleared up on more than one occasion since joining the Kings via trade.

Mitchell (personal) is still having problems obtaining his visa, which means he'll sit out Thursday's road game against the Capitals, NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The bottom-six scoring center is about to miss his fifth straight game since the Kings acquired Mitchell from the Canadiens on Nov. 23. We'll see if he can get this issue settled before Friday's road match with the Blues.

Mitchell (personal) didn't take part in line rushes during pregame warmups, indicating he won't be in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Wings, Curtis Zupke of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell is still waiting to receive his American work visa, but it sounds like he may have a legitimate shot at making his Kings debut Thursday against the Capitals. The veteran pivot will likely occupy a bottom-six role once he's given the green light to suit up for LA.

Mitchell's visa status has yet to be cleared up, putting his availability for Tuesday's clash against Detroit in question, Jon Rosen of Fox Sports West reports.

EDGE Analysis

Barring a quick resolution, it seems doubtful that Mitchell will not be ready in time to face off with the Red Wings; however, he has yet to be ruled out. The winger will likely have to wait until Thursday versus Washington to make his Kings' debut after coming over via trade from Montreal.

Mitchell is still dealing with a delay in receiving his work visa, but hopes it will be resolved by Monday night, Jon Rosen of Fox Sports West reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mitchell was traded from Montreal to Los Angeles, which is where the visa issues popped up. The Kings are about to head on a four-game road trip starting Tuesday, so if this doesn't get settled Monday then Mitchell will have to potentially join them on the road.
