Islanders vs. Canucks Gameday News: Mitchell joins the fray

The five-game road trip continues in Vancouver tonight with a new body potentially available for the Islanders’ injury-riddled lineup.

Alex Romanov remains out, and Dennis Cholowski remains pretty sparingly used, so the callup of Cornell grad Travis Mitchell adds another wrinkle to the depleted blueline.

The Canucks are flying pretty high at 8-3-3 and a .679 points percentage.
