Troubling news strikes New York Rangers as star defenseman undergoes surgery this offseason

This past season was a very disappointing one for the New York Rangers as they dealt with a series of injuries throughout the season, and now more troubling news surfaces regarding defensman K'Andre Miller as he reportedly had to undergo surgery due to an injury.

According to Rangers insider Arthur Staple, restricted free agent K'Andre Miller has had surgery for an upper-body injury he sustained closer to the end of the season.

Several reports have stated that Miller attempted to rehab it and play through the injury, but ultimately surgery was needed to help him prepare for the upcoming season.

The 25-year old defenseman had a very underwhelming performance this past season with the Rangers as he finished the season with only tallying 7 goals and 20 assists for a total of 27 points throughout 74 games played in the 2024-25 season.

Certainly a troubling situation for Miller as he will be a restricted free agent this summer and will now only be two years away from unrestricted free agency. Hopefully the youngster can recover quickly and hope that this surgery won't have any affect on his performance this upcoming season.
