AP Source: Rangers Captain J.T. Miller Week to Week With Upper-Body Injury

An Associated Press source pegs his return as week to week, easing concern over his Olympic availability.

Overview

  • Miller will not play against the Predators after remaining in New York for evaluation, coach Mike Sullivan said.
  • He left Saturday’s 5-4 shootout win over the Flyers following a heavy hit from defenseman Nick Seeler late in the third period.
  • The team has not announced a formal diagnosis or official timeline, and outside speculation about a separated shoulder remains unconfirmed.
  • The AP source also indicated his potential selection for the 2026 U.S. Olympic team is not in jeopardy.
  • Miller, who has 10 goals and 12 assists in 35 games, leaves a significant void as the Rangers consider short-term forward adjustments, including possible top-six opportunities for Gabe Perreault.
