After five seasons with New York Rangers, 25-year-old defenseman K’Andre Miller has a new team and new eight-year, $60 million contract.

K'Andre Miller is eager to start work with the Carolina Hurricanes. The Hurricanes acquired the 25-year-old defenseman from the New York Rangers on Tuesday.

Not to be lost in the K’Andre Miller trade Tuesday is that the New York Rangers acquired a top-end prospect from the Carolina Hurricanes to go along with the conditional first-round pick and second rounder in next year’s draft.
