Defenceman K'Andre Miller's spectacular hockey experience

K'Andre Miller, born on January 21, 2000, is an American professional ice hockey defenseman currently playing for the New York Rangers in the NHL. The Rangers selected him in the first round, 22nd overall, in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft.

Originally from Saint Paul, Minnesota, Miller started skating at a young age and initially played as a forward, drawing inspiration from Mikko Koivu. However, he transitioned to defense when Minnetonka High School needed a defenseman.

After two years at Minnetonka, Miller joined the USA Hockey National Team Development Program, where he played in the United States Hockey League and represented the team in various international tournaments, including the 2016 World U-17 Hockey Challenge and the 2018 IIHF World U18 Championships.

Following his time with the development program, Miller played two seasons with the Wisconsin Badgers while also participating in consecutive IIHF World Junior Championships.

K'Andre Miller decided to forego his remaining college eligibility and signed a contract with the Rangers, although his arrival to the team was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Eventually, he made his NHL debut during the 2020-21 season and quickly established himself as a valuable member of the Rangers' young core.

Paired with Jacob Trouba, K'Andre Miller consistently played over 20 minutes per game and earned recognition as a member of the NHL All-Rookie Team at the conclusion of the season.

In a total of 214 appearances, Miller has amassed 75 points (21 goals and 54 assists) for the Rangers.
