K'Andre Miller is done in New York.

The former first round pick has reportedly played his last game as a Ranger.

The New York Rangers went through some very public turmoil over the course of the 2024-25 National Hockey League season and the months that preceded it, and it now seems clear that general manager Chris Drury is looking to make significant changes in order to guarantee there won't be a repeat next season.

NHL executives are fresh off of meeting face to face at the NHL combine over the weekend and now there are reports that the Rangers are looking to move on from one of their former first round picks. Rangers insider Larry Brooks is now reporting that Miller was a much discussed player at the scouting combine, so much so that he believes that Miller may have already played his last game with the Rangers.

Brooks has good reason to believe Miller could be gone, one way or another, with his sources indicating that an offer sheet for Miller is likely if he isn't traded prior to become a restricted free agent on July 1st.

From Brooks:

Several sources believe that Miller will be targeted with an offer sheet if No. 79 — an impending restricted free agent with arbitration rights — is not moved before July 1.

Miller, who was drafted 22nd overall by the Rangers at the 2018 NHL Entry Draft, has played a significant role on the Rangers blue line over the last several seasons. Since being drafted he has appeared in 368 NHL games with the Rangers, scoring 36 goals and 96 assists for a total of 132 career points. Miller has averaged over 21 minutes of ice time a night over the last 5 seasons which would leave Chris Drury a significant hole to fill on the blue line.

Brooks has suggested that the Rangers would be willing to consider a lateral move, perhaps even a swap for another defenseman, with the driving factor behind such a move reportedly being Drury's desire to drastically shift the culture in the Rangers locker room.

Should the Rangers trade Miller? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
