Fantasy Analysis
John Mitchell has shown a bit of a scoring flair lately with three goals in his last fives games, but don't be fooled. The Rangers' center has not been getting consistent ice time, and an average of 11:07 minutes per game is as good a reason as any to let him sit on the waiver wire. (Updated 01/25/2012).

Max Pacioretty had two goals and an assist, linemates David Desharnais and Erik Cole also had three points each, and the Montreal Canadiens ended a three-game skid with a 4-1 win over the New York Rangers on Sunday night.
Mitchell will sport a Rangers sweater this season after signing a one-year deal with the club in the summer. Between a knee injury and time spent with AHL Toronto and AHL Hartford/CT, Mitchell found his way into just 23 games in 2010-11. If he's up with the big club this campaign, it will almost assuredly be in a limited checking role. (Updated 10/4/11)
