The New York Rangers announced Tuesday that they re-signed restricted free agent K’Andre Miller to a bridge deal (two years) worth $7.74 million, with a $3.8 AAV. Besides Adam Fox, the 23-year-old Miller is one of the pillars of the Rangers’ defensive corps and could be the type of player that only gets better with age.
Miller has missed just three games since the start of the 2021-22 season and, in the same time frame, has grown into a hitting machine averaging 156 a year. Furthermore, he’s a young guy who isn’t afraid to put his body on the line, with 277 career blocks in 214 games.
