01/Where he scores from
Mikkola scored 3 regular season goals on 122 unblocked attempts from the offensive zone, 2025-26. No single patch of ice holds an unusual share of them.
Doorstep. 0 of his 3 goals came from here, on 9 of his 122 attempts.
Slot. 1 of his 3 goals came from here, on 15 of his 122 attempts.
Perimeter. 0 of his 3 goals came from here, on 66 of his 122 attempts.
Point. 2 of his 3 goals came from here, on 32 of his 122 attempts.
Under 150 located attempts, so the counts are raw. A share of 122 shots moves by more than a point on one bounce, and printing it would give the sample an authority it has not earned.
Unblocked attempts — shots on goal, goals and misses — taken in the offensive zone, 2025-26. Clubs change ends each period, so every attempt is rotated into one zone; the shooter’s left is the left of the frame. Blocked attempts are not plotted, and neither is anything taken from the neutral or defensive zone. This is a record of what happened, not a forecast: nothing here is claimed to repeat.
