Slated to play in Game 5
Mikkola (upper body) is expected to be available for Game 5 against the Hurricanes on Wednesday, per Eric Engels of Sportsnet.
ANALYSIS
Mikkola missed Monday's 3-0 loss to Carolina due to the injury. He has three goals, five points, 33 PIM and 40 hits in 15 playoff outings this year. Mikkola's return might result in Uvis Balinskis being a healthy scratch.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2020
2018
Mikkola didn't miss a single game in his first season with the Panthers. He appeared in all 82 regular-season contests in addition to suiting up for all 24 of Florida's postseason battles en route to the Stanley Cup. Mikkola offers nothing offensively -- his 17 points last season were a new career-high -- but he's very valuable from a real-life standpoint, killing penalties and logging tough defensive minutes. The 28-year-old Finn did manage 199 hits and 124 blocks, which combined with a plus-11 rating gives him some modest fantasy value in extremely deep leagues which value such numbers.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Iffy for Monday
Mikkola, who has missed the last four games due to an upper-body injury, is iffy for Monday's road game against the Avalanche, Colby Guy of The Palm Beach Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Mikkola still appears to be considered day-to-day, but his status is in question for Monday's game, especially after Tobias Bjornfot was called up from AHL Charlotte on Monday. If Mikkola remains out Monday, his next chance to suit up would be Wednesday against Utah.
