Perhaps I'm using the wrong word, but by milder winters, I meant warmer winters. The article you link to points out how increased moisture in the atmosphere will lead to more extreme snow storms in below-freezing areas, but acknowledges that winters will be warmer in general (just not enough warmer to get those below-freezing areas above freezing, which would result in rainstorms instead or snow storms).
