Torrey Mitchell News
Look for Torrey Mitchell to miss another game. He said yesterday he felt good enough to play, but it’s not like McLellan to do much line-tinkering when the team is on a three-game winning streak.

With the team winning, Mitchell is unlikely to return tonight. The often-injured forward is off to an excellent start with three assists through his first five games.

Torrey Mitchell said he felt good enough to play at this point, so it looks as if it’s just a question of whether Todd McLellan wants to tinker with his team on a three-game winning streak.

The Sharks have won without Mitchell over the past week so letting him rest wouldn't be an awful move. Expect another update tomorrow, prior to game time.

For example, among the last players on the ice were Torrey Mitchell, Jason Demers and Colin White. Half their teammates were back at the hotel before they came off.

Doesn't sound like Mitchell will play tonight. If you roster the often-injured right wing, make sure to bench him tonight.

NASHVILLE, TN - Sharks forward Torrey Mitchell skated with the team in Nashville on Monday afternoon, but is questionable to play against the Predators on Tuesday night at Bridgestone Arena.

Check back for further news on Mitchell at some point tomorrow. Should he not be able to play, Benn Ferreiro will step into the lineup.

I lied. Mitchell now out there with Ferriero and Handzus as the shuffling continues at #SJSharks practice.

Mitchell practicing with his usual line indicates he could be ready to return. Either Mitchell or Benn Ferreiro will play on the third line tomorrow.

Injured forward Torrey Mitchell could be back in the lineup against the Predators after missing the Bruins game with upper body soreness. Mitchell fell awkwardly into the boards during the first minute of the New Jersey game after being elbowed to the head by Devils forward Nick Palmieri.

Devils right wing Nick Palmieri was assessed a two-minute minor for an illegal check to the head for a hit on Torrey Mitchell 59 seconds into the game. It looked like Palmieri connected with his shoulder. Mitchell was shaken up had to be helped off the ice. He has not returned.

Last season, Mitchell only played in 66 games and 56 the season before making him somewhat injury prone. With three assists through his first five games played, the right wing was off to one of his best starts. Stay tuned for a further update on the Sharks third liner.

Looks like Mitchell staying on second line with 29 and 39

With nine goals last season, Mitchell has shown the ability to fill the net. Through his first three games, the Montreal native already has two assists. Expect some decent interim fantasy hockey value.
