J.T. Miller Leaves Rangers Practice With Non-Contact Injury as Reports Say He Is Day-to-Day

The Rangers say he is being evaluated, with early indications pointing to only a short absence.

Overview

  • Miller appeared to grab the back of his left leg after lunging for a puck during a power‑play drill, then skated off gingerly without assistance.
  • Coach Mike Sullivan said there was no official update beyond that Miller was being evaluated, and the team has not provided a timeline.
  • Reporting from the New York Post, relayed by Reuters, described the injury as lower‑body and said Miller is considered day‑to‑day with the possibility of practicing as soon as Tuesday.
  • The Athletic’s Peter Baugh was cited by Pro Hockey Rumors saying Miller is expected to be fine, with only a few days missed at worst.
  • The injury comes weeks after Miller was named captain in his second stint with New York; he posted 13 goals and 22 assists in 32 games after being reacquired on Jan. 31.
