Ian Mitchell

December 2018 – Mitchell is having a great season at the University of Denver and has been named to Team Canada’s preliminary roster for the upcoming world junior hockey championships. An alternate captain for the Pioneers, Mitchell will looked upon to add leadership to the Canadian roster. Tony Carr

August 2018 – Mitchell impressed at the prospect camp held in July. He was able to show off his elite level shooting and his developing physical play during the scrimmages and drills. Expectations are high for the 2017 second rounder, who will be entering his second season with the University of Denver in the fall. Tony Carr

February 2018 – Mitchell has taken his considerable skill set to the University of Denver where he has continued to control play using his great skating. Named Bauer NCHC Defenseman of the Week (Jan. 22, 2018), he is piling up points in his freshman season, currently sitting with 22 in 28 games played. In order to make the transition to professional hockey, Mitchell will need to work harder in his own zone while defending. This would be the weakest point of his game although he is far advanced when compared against his peers due to his excellent skating and positioning.  Tony Carr
