Mikko is a skilled dynamic winger who skates very well and will play a very creative game. He’s coming off a down year offensively in CZE/Liiga which is the only reason he became available to us.
Mikko had 11 goals and played a top 6 role in Liiga in the 21-22 season at only 24 years of age so we are getting a guy who’s proved he can score goals in one of Europe’s best leagues. He’s coming in hungry and excited to get started. I think he will be a very reliable player defensively and is a great team player.
Mikko is one of the guys I’m most excited about seeing how his game translates at our level as I think he will make a big impact in our group.

He could do well in this league, and he clearly has something to prove. Form is temporary but class is permanent.
He looks motivated to earn a place on one of Europe's higher leagues, and if he helps the Steelers to silverware doing so that's fine with me.
