With his new contract, the player will earn almost 4 million dollars per year.
K’Andre (23) notched 9 goals and gave 34 assists with the organization in the past season, his 3rd campaign in the National Hockey League. He also had an assist in 7 postseason matches.
Since being drafted with the 22nd 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
