The NY Rangers cap gymnastics continue to get more complicated. After yesterday’s accidental spitting incident involving K’Andre Miller and Drew Doughty, in which Miller was ejected, there is a possible suspension coming. Other spitting incidents have resulted in 3 game suspensions, but those were purposeful. Miller’s was accidental, and he smoothed things over with Doughty after the fact.
Unfortunately, the NHL’s wheel of justice when it comes to suspensions rarely plays out in the Rangers’ favor. So we should be expecting more Rangers cap gymnastics, it’s just a matter of when they want Kane and how much cap space they need post deadline.
