Helene Elliott of the LA Times: X-rays on Willie Mitchell’s upper-body injury showed no breaks or fractures, an MRI is being done today. The LA Kings also need to decide this week if they’ll be sending Kyle Clifford (9 games) and/or Brayden Schenn (8 games) back to Junior. Clifford has played more lately, getting some praises from his coach for his play. Schenn has been a scratch the last 2 games, and needs some work on the defensive side of things.
