On his first day practicing with the Rangers — the actual Rangers, as opposed to the unsigned draft picks invited to the club’s annual summer prospect camp — K’Andre Miller literally fell down the first time someone passed him the puck.
Eventually, the nerves went away, and Miller, the 20-year-old defenseman out of the University of Wisconsin who signed with the organization in March, grew into a steady presence at Rangers’ training camp as they prepared to go to Toronto Sunday to restart their 2019-20 season.
