The Rangers have decided to send their 12th overall pick to the Pittsburgh Penguins, finalizing the JT Miller trade. This move, made in advance of the deadline, suggests that the team may have exhausted trade alternatives and wants to capitalize on the opportunity offered by leveraging a 2026 pick. Analysts speculate this might indicate a transition year, a summer offer sheet, or a lack of interest in targets available at the 12th pick. Meanwhile, keeping K'Andre Miller opens the possibility for a move back into the first round through trade.
