High players patinated to face Mikkola, leading to a skirmish after the expiration of time. Jayden Struble, Christian Dvorak, Brendan Gallagher and Savard have all tried to go to Mikkola while the players and officials of the panthers were trying to separate them.
After the line line, Julien Fournier brought Mikkola to the Panthers bench, the defender and the structure continued to shout on it before heading to the locker room.
Mikkola obtained a two -minute minor for an old -fashioned driving and a 10 -minute fault. The fine of $ 5,000, which is the highest that collective negotiations allows without audience, returns to the players’ emergency aid fund.
