Miller could return as early as Sunday at home versus Carolina. The 24-year-old blueliner has two goals, four assists, 55 hits and 40 blocked shots in 28 contests this season.

Placed on injured reserve The Rangers put Miller (upper body) on injured reserve Friday, per Dan Rosen of NHL.com.

Impact Miller left Wednesday's tilt versus the Sabres at the end of the second period and did not return. The Rangers will likely use Connor Mackey as their sixth defenseman in Miller's absence. Miller has two goals, four assists, 55 hits and 40 blocked shots in 28 appearances this season.

Won't travel for start of road trip Miller (upper body) won't travel with the Rangers for the start of their upcoming road trip, which begins Sunday in St. Louis, Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reports.

Impact Miller exited Wednesday's game against the Sabres due to an upper-body injury, and he'll be forced to miss some time due to the issue. The Rangers also face the Kings at home Saturday, so it seems as though Miller will also be sidelined for that matchup. Connor Mackey is in line to serve as the team's sixth defenseman in Miller's absence.

One of each in defeat Miller delivered a goal and an assist in Sunday's 7-5 loss to Seattle.

Impact Miller snapped a seven-game point drought by recording his first multi-point outing of the campaign Sunday. The left-shot blueliner registered the primary helper on Reilly Smith's tally to open the scoring in the first period, and he added an even-strength goal to cut Seattle's lead to 6-4 in the final frame. The 24-year-old Miller has chipped in two goals and four assists through 26 games. All six of Miller's points have come at even strength, as he receives minimal usage on the power play.

Keller scores second goal of game in OT and Utah beats New York Rangers 6-5 to move to 3-0

Clayton Keller scored his second goal of the game at 4:05 of overtime, and the Utah Hockey Club beat the New York Rangers 6-5 on Saturday night for their third win in three games

OCTOBER 13 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

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.

He added an insurance marker to put the Rangers up 4-1 in the third period, then assisted on Alexis Lafreniere's goal later in the final frame. Miller delivered his first three-point game since a four-point outburst against Nashville on March 19, bringing him up to seven goals and 15 points through 31 games this season.
