New York Rangers: K’Andre Miller finishes short but strong freshman season

Comparing the production of different players at the amateur or developmental level does not inherently translate to NHL success. However, similar or even better years can prove to be solid indicators of talent over long periods of time. As an 18-year-old, K’Andre Miller, a defensive prospect of the New York Rangers, had an amazing freshman year at Wisconsin.

The United States Hockey developmental program has produced a handful of quality NHL players like Zach Werenski, Jacob Trouba, Charlie McAvoy, Noah Hanafin and Mike Matheson. This group represents players that played college hockey at age 18 like Miller and went through the USA hockey program prior to college.
