K'Andre Miller - NHL News & Rumors

Ends point drought Miller notched an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Canucks.

Impact Miller had gone 11 games without a point, posting a minus-8 rating, 16 shots on net, 22 hits and 16 blocked shots in that span. The 24-year-old defenseman has played alongside Adam Fox on the top pairing for the last few contests, though Miller fills more of a shutdown role a la Ryan Lindgren when that's the Rangers' defensive arrangement. Miller has three points, 27 shots on net, 32 hits, 26 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating through 17 appearances. He's reached the 30-point mark in each of the last two seasons, so it's fair to expect a bit more offense from him moving forward.

Pots goal Saturday Miller scored a goal on three shots, blocked three shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 6-5 overtime loss to Utah.

Impact Miller has gotten a look on the top pairing while Ryan Lindgren (upper body) is on injured reserve. In addition to his goal, Miller has five shots on net, six blocked shots, three hits and a plus-3 rating over two contests. The 24-year-old defenseman is also on the second power-play unit, a spot he could hold for most of the campaign. He disappointed with 30 points in 80 regular-season outings in 2023-24, but he had 43 points the year before, showcasing the upside he has on offense.

Sets up two goals Friday Miller was credited with two assists in Friday's 5-2 preseason loss to the Islanders. He also took two shots and blocked two shots.

Impact Miller was heavily involved on offense early on and had a hand in the team's two goals, scored by Jonny Brodzinski and Adam Fox, but he couldn't escape New York's defensive struggles following the strong start. Miller is penciled as a top-unit defender for the 2024-25 season after notching 30 points (eight goals, 22 assists) in 80 regular-season contests in 2023-24.

OCTOBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

Posts helper in Game 3 win Miller logged an assist and two PIM in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Impact Miller has made modest contributions on offense with a goal and three assists over 13 playoff outings while maintaining his second-pairing spot. The defenseman set up the second of Alexis Lafreniere's goals in Sunday's game. Miller has added a physical element with 23 hits, 16 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating this postseason, but without much of a power-play role, his offense is unlikely to improve much.

MAY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Generates assist Miller notched an assist and four shots on goal in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Canadiens.

Impact Miller snapped a nine-game point drought with his helper on Alexis Lafreniere's empty-net tally. The 24-year-old Miller continues to play in a top-four role, but he's had a bit of a down year on offense. He's at 30 points, 93 shots on net, 143 hits, 111 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 76 appearances. He produced 43 points in 79 outings a year ago.

APRIL 8 • ROTOWIRE

Two helpers against Isles Miller collected two assists in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Islanders.

Impact It's the second straight multi-point performance for Miller, with his five points (one goal, four helpers) during that pair of contests equaling his output from the prior 15 games combined. The 24-year-old blueliner doesn't see significant power play time, so his current surge isn't likely to last long, but on the season he's up to eight goals and 29 points through 66 games.

MARCH 18 • ROTOWIRE

Three points in big win Miller produced a goal and two assists in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Penguins.

Impact His tally early in the third period was a back-breaker for Pittsburgh, as it gave the Rangers a 6-3 lead. Miller hadn't had a multi-point performance since Dec. 27, which was also the last time he'd found the back of the net as Saturday's marker snapped a 33-game goal drought. On the season, the 24-year-old blueliner has eight goals and 27 points through 65 games.

MARCH 16 • ROTOWIRE

Assists on empty-netter Miller had an assist, two shots and a plus-1 rating in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Miller got the secondary helper on Artemi Panarin's empty-netter, which capped the scoring. The helper was Miller's third in his last five games, but he hasn't posted a multi-point game or scored a goal since a two-goal, three-point offensive outburst against the Capitals on Dec. 27. Miller occasionally shows flashes of brilliance offensively, but his lack of a signature performance over the last two months is due in part to lack of opportunities on the power play -- all but one of Miller's 23 points this season have come at even strength, and the other was scored shorthanded.

FEBRUARY 29 • ROTOWIRE

Snags helper Monday Miller registered an assist against the Avs on Monday.

Impact Miller now has helpers in three of his last five contests but hasn't scored since Dec. 27 versus Washington, a stretch of 17 games. During his drought, the Minnesota native recorded a meager 21 shots, which certainly isn't improving his chances of finding the back of the net.

FEBRUARY 6 • ROTOWIRE

Lends assist in overtime loss Miller recorded an assist, three shots on goal and three hits in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Sharks.

Impact Miller helped out on Artemi Panarin's second-period tally. After enduring an 11-game point drought, Miller is emerging from his slump with a helper in each of the last two contests. The 24-year-old blueliner is up to 18 points, 56 shots on net, 59 hits, 60 blocked shots, 26 PIM and a plus-4 rating through 45 outings. He remains firmly in a top-four role, though a lack of power-play time lowers his ceiling in fantasy.

NOVEMBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Logs another strong outing Miller skated to a plus-3 rating with a goal in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Bruins.

Impact Miller was incredibly efficient in this one, and thanks in large part to his valiant efforts out on both ends of the ice, the Rangers moved to a tie with the Bruins for the league lead in total points at 31 apiece. There isn't a huge market for Miller in fantasy hockey, even on the heels of his career-best 43-point campaign, but the 23-year-old is representing the Blueshirts well based on two goals, six assists and a plus-9 rating through 19 contests.

NOVEMBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Helps out twice in OT victory Miller posted two assists in Monday's 3-2 overtime win against the Jets.

Next up is a home game against the Hurricanes on Thursday.

He was able to provide the heroics at 3:48 of the extra session, converting on a Chris Kreider pass. Miller has four points over his last four games and five points through eight outings this season. The 23-year-old blueliner has added a plus-4 rating, six shots on net and 11 blocked shots in a top-four role.

OCTOBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Generates assist Tuesday Miller logged an assist in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Flames.

Impact Miller is heating up a bit with three helpers over his last two contests. The 23-year-old blueliner is up to four helpers, five shots on net, seven blocked shots and a plus-2 rating through six games this season. Miller's not seeing much power-play time -- Adam Fox quarterbacks the first unit and Erik Gustafsson is on the second unit. Nonetheless, Miller can chip in across the board to help fantasy managers, though his physicality has been a bit muted to start the campaign.

OCTOBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Collects two helpers Miller recorded a pair of assists in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Kraken.

Impact Miller snapped a three-game pointless drought with secondary helpers on goals by Kaapo Kakko and Artemi Panarin in this contest. The 23-year-old Miller led the Rangers with 21:58 of ice time, and he's seen 20-plus minutes in all five contests this season. He's earned three assists, five shots on net, three hits, six blocked shots and a plus-1 rating in a second-pairing role. Miller had 43 points over 79 outings in a breakout 2022-23 campaign.

OCTOBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Well-rounded Opening Night outing Miller had a shorthanded assist, three shots, two blocked shots and one hit in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Sabres.

Impact Miller's strong all-around performance included a helper on Chris Kreider's shorthanded goal, which stretched New York's lead to 4-1 in the third period. The 23-year-old defenseman led the Rangers with 23:39 TOI, including well over two minutes on both the power play and penalty kill. His 2:46 power-play TOI was inflated by a late power play with the game well in hand, but Miller's presence on the second unit adds to his upside coming off a 2022-23 campaign in which he scored 43 points, only three of which came on the man advantage.

OCTOBER 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Miller has become an integral part of New York's top-four defense group while developing a strong two-way presence on the ice.
