J.T. Miler appeared to sustain a lower-body injury at New York Rangers practice Monday, in what could potentially be a major blow before the 2025-26 season even begins.
The Rangers captain was working with the top power-play unit when the apparent injury took place. Miller lunged to push a loose puck past a defender toward the left point. As play continued around him, Miller remained on all fours. He pushed himself up on his left leg, then gingerly took careful skating strides toward the bench. He glided the last several feet, before departing back into the locker room area.
Miller reportedly was unavailable to the media after practice concluded, and was instead with team trainers.

The Rangers didn't immediately have an update on Miller. Coach Mike Sullivan wasn't at the MSG Training Center the apparent injury. Instead, Sullivan was with the game group at UBS Arena, preparing for a preseason game Monday against the New York Islanders .
All he said from Long Island is that Miller is being evaluated.
