Mikkola boarding on Girgensons – Tough Call Recommendation
Mikkola boarding on Girgensons – Tough Call Recommendation
Niko Mikkola drove Zemgus Girgensons’ head into the boards from behind while he was on his knees. He was issued a five minute major and a game misconduct.
I honestly think this one was the actual headshot that people keep trying to claim the other one was. I'd even argue it's the most blatantly wrong of the 4 controversial hits in this series as i can't come up with any reason he might have thought that was an acceptable option
We have to start raising these maximum fines. 5k is nothing to these guys. Fine him 100k instead and see if they keep making these stupid non-hockey plays

It was an accident he didn’t mean to
2 minutes
0/10 ragebait 😂
It's a very Florida play.
Tampa can’t hang
What a dummy

Fin and Panther fan here I would also suspend Mikkola for 3 games
Florida can just do whatever they want. I hate watching these games because players are gonna seriously get hurt and the league is ok with that.
This is a Panthers special. And the weird and surprising thing is, the refs even called it.
Fucking sick of Florida getting away with this shit
The $5,000 fine issued by the NHL DoPS seems waaaay low for what this play is. Should have at least been a game, even in the playoffs.

He already got tossed for it, and its ultimately just a bad hit that didnt cause injury at 3mph
The fine was fair
Thats fucking insane lmfao
Was this the game after Hagel late hit Barkov?
