K’Andre (23) notched 9 goals and gave 34 assists with the organization in the past season, his 3^rd campaign in the National Hockey League. He also had an assist in 7 postseason matches.

Since being drafted with the 22^nd overall pick by the NY Rangers at the 2018 NHL Draft, Miller has scored 21 goals and has 54 assists in 214 career matches, notching 2 goals and giving 6 assists in 27 clashes in the playoffs.

This is actually a very fair AAV for K’Andre Miller. I thought he would get over $4m, scoring 40 points, but the 2nd half of the season and playoffs were not good and cost him some money. Hopefully this is a message sent and he has a monster 2 years for #NYR. Good work by Drury. https://t.co/AigszW6dQN
