Canadiens' Torrey Mitchell: Hits twine twice in win over Devils

Mitchell notched his sixth and seventh goals of the season in Thursday's 5-2 victory over New Jersey, rounding out his line with a plus-2 rating and two PIM.

Analysis:

Over the prior dozen games, Mitchell had collected exactly zero points and eight shots on net, so this pretty much came out of nowhere. His four shots in this one represent a season high, but he still skated a modest 13:34 with no power-play time. Perhaps those in super-deep fantasy formats can find a place for him, especially with Montreal so thin at center right now, but the vast majority of leagues should have better options on the waiver wire.
