New York Rangers defenseman K’Andre Miller has been suspended three video games for spitting on Drew Doughty of the Los Angeles Kings. After reviewing the incident, NHL Player Safety introduced a three-game suspension for Miller on Tuesday.

Miller was ejected from Sunday’s win over the Kings after he spat on Doughty and acquired a recreation misconduct within the first interval. 

Following the sport, Miller posted an apology on social media wherein he claimed that spitting on Doughty was unintentional.

“I’ve all of the respect on the earth for Drew Doughty, and what occurred was utterly unintentional,” Miller wrote. “I’d by no means intend to do one thing like that on goal. It goes in opposition to every thing I’m as an individual and participant. I felt terrible about it, and I’m grateful Drew gave me the chance to apologize and clarify myself in particular person after the sport.”

In his postgame press convention, Doughty informed reporters that he was shocked by what occurred, however he wasn’t certain whether or not Miller meant to do it.

“I used to be simply shocked, clearly,” Doughty informed the media. “I do not even know if I mentioned something to him after, however I simply instantly went to the ref to attempt to get the penalty.

“You do not wish to see issues like that on this recreation. I do not know if I’ve ever seen that. I’m certain it has occurred, however not that I’ve seen. It’s unlucky and whether or not or not he meant to do it, I don’t know. It’s a reasonably large loogie on my face, so I used to be fairly pissed.”

Miller will now must miss video games in opposition to the Philadelphia Flyers, Ottawa Senators, and Boston Bruins whereas he serves his suspension.

In that stretch, the Rangers might must play shorthanded on the blue line. In the method of buying Patrick Kane from the Chicago Blackhawks, the Rangers have not left themselves with a lot flexibility relating to the wage cap and might need points with calling up further assist if Ryan Lindgren continues to be unable to play resulting from harm.
