There's ‘Absolute Fire’ When It Comes To K'Andre Miller Trade Speculation

There’s an increased speculation that K’Andre Miller will be traded by the New York Rangers this offseason. 

Since the 2024-25 season came to a close for the Rangers, speculation about Miller’s future has run rampant. 

With no contract extension in place, the reality of the Blueshirts moving on from the young defenseman has become more and more real. 

Yes, it’s hard to believe every rumor you see, but when multiple trusted NHL insiders are reporting about Miller’s availability, it’s hard not to put stock into those reports. 

NHL insider Frank Seravalli used strong language when discussing the Rangers’ desire to trade Miller. 

“If there’s more than smoke, there’s absolute fire when it comes to K’Andre Miller,” Seravalli said. “They are looking to re-shape their defensive core. My understanding is back from his days in Pittsburgh even before he got to New York that Mike Sullivan in Pittsburgh was not a huge fan of K’Andre Miller’s game. That probably further enforces and supports that Miller is going to be on the move or likely be on the move.”

It’s unclear if Miller and the Rangers have made any sort of progress on a new contract extension or what the trade market for the 24-year-old blueliner looks like at this moment in time.
