Mikkola logged an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Stars in Finland. Mikkola has four assists over his last five games, and that's with the 28-year-old not seeing anything more than a trace of power-play time. He's been a consistent part of the Panthers' top four on the blue line, which gives him some proximity to the team's top forwards. Overall, Mikkola has six helpers, 16 shots on net, 23 blocked shots, 15 hits, 10 PIM and an even plus-minus rating through 13 appearances.

Mikkola notched an assist in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Rangers. Mikkola snapped a three-game point drought with the helper. The 28-year-old defenseman doesn't offer much in the way of offense, but he continues to see top-four minutes on a shutdown pairing with Dmitry Kulikov. Mikkola is at three assists, 11 shots on net, 11 hits, 14 blocked shots, six PIM and a minus-4 rating through nine appearances.

Mikkola picked up two assists in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Blue Jackets. The veteran blueliner collected his first points of the season, as he had a hand in a Dmitry Kulikov tally in the second period and Eetu Luostarinen's game-winner in the third. Mikkola produced a career-high 17 points (three goals, 14 assists) in 82 regular-season games for Florida last season, but his true fantasy value lies elsewhere -- he already has 10 blocked shots through five games in 2024-25, including four Tuesday.
