The Vancouver Canucks have signed Willie Mitchell to a four-year deal. Mitchell’s a strong competitor who we saw matched against Bertuzzi in many a game. I’ve often expressed extreme dislike for Mitchell, while saying that I’d love him if he were wearing our uniform. So I think Nonis did a great job picking Mitchell up.
