Playing career
editMikúš was invited to Spartak Moscow's training camp in2010, but failed to make the team due to the import quota. Instead, he joined Dinamo Riga of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL).[2]
Mikúš was initially released from Dinamo Riga in November 2010, but rejoined them as Martin Cibak and Jaroslav Obsut had been released from Spartak.[3][better source needed] After splitting the 2017–18 season, between HC Slovan Bratislava and HC Litvínov in the Czech Extraliga, Mikúš opted to extend his tenure in the ELH, agreeing to a three-year optional contract with Litvínov on 18 May 2018.[4]
Personal life
editOutside of his playing career, Mikúš is also active at various levels of politics, serving as a local councillor in Skalica and failed to run for parliament in 2023 on the KDH party list. He also ran for the 2024 European Parliament election in Slovakia.[5]
