K’Andre Miller kept his phone off and avoided social media in recent weeks with his future uncertain after five seasons with the Rangers. Now, he’s eager to jump into the Hurricanes’ aggressive system.

K'Andre Miller was traded to the Carolina Hurricanes by the New York Rangers on Tuesday before signing an eight-year, $60 million contract. It has an average annual value of $7.5 million.

As New York makes moves to improve next season, top prospect Gabe Perreault is also aiming to make the NHL roster in the fall.
