Mikkola Ties It Up in Fla-Det Thriller

Florida's blue line depth shows why they're perennial contenders, with Mikkola stepping up when the game's on the line. Detroit counters with their usual tenacity, but this one's got playoff implications written all over it as both teams jockey for position in a tightening Eastern Conference race.
