Hurricanes' K'Andre Miller: Involved in sign-and-trade
Rotowire
Miller (upper body) signed an eight-year, $60 million contract Tuesday and was traded to the Hurricanes from the Rangers in exchange for a first-round and a second-round pick in 2026 and Scott Morrow, per PuckPedia.
The Rangers' remodeling continues, with Miller out the door to a division rival after the sign-and-trade deal. Miller has emerged as a top-four option early in his career, but the Hurricanes' intensity in their own zone should still provide him a challenge while playing to his strengths as a physical force. The 25-year-old is recovering from an upper-body surgery and may miss part of training camp, but he's poised to be a key part of the Hurricanes' lineup for years to come.
Miller reportedly had surgery to repair an upper-body injury but will be ready for the start of the 2025-26 campaign, Arthur Staple of The Athletic reports Friday.
As a restricted free agent, Miller will need a new contract this year before he can return to the lineup -- in addition to recovering from his upper-body injury. Based on the report, it sounds like Miller may not be 100 percent during training camp but should be available for Opening Night of the 2025-26 campaign.

Rangers' K'Andre Miller: Game-time decision versus Flyers
Rotowire
Miller (illness) will be a game-time call for Wednesday's matchup with Philadelphia, Colin Stephenson of Newsday reports.

Prior to getting sick, the 25-year-old blueliner was rolling offensively with five points in his last six contests in addition to recording 13 hits and eight blocks.

Rangers' K'Andre Miller: Not skating Sunday
Rotowire
Miller is not practicing Sunday as he deals with an illness, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
Miller was on the ice for 23:21 in Saturday's 4-0 loss to New Jersey, though he'll sit out Sunday's practice as he looks to get healthy for Monday's home matchup with the Lightning. Miller has seven goals and 23 points in 70 games this season. Zac Jones would likely reenter the lineup if Miller can't go.

Miller has only 23 points in 69 appearances this season, but his seven goals leaves him two away from tying his career high, and he's one blocked shot away from reaching triple digits in both hits and blocks for the third straight campaign.
