JT Miller Misses Rangers Locker Room Clear Out Day Due to Personal Tragedy

Rangers forward JT Miller was absent today as the team held their end-of-season exit interviews as he deals with a personal tragedy.

Rangers fans were expecting their team to go on another deep playoff run this season but unfortunately the year turned out to be a disaster for them.

So instead, the players are clearing out their lockers today and giving their final thoughts on the season to reporters.

However, one notable Ranger is not with the team today.

That would be veteran center JT Miller, who was acquired by the team via trade in January.

Miller began the season with the Vancouver Canucks, but a rumored feud between him and Elias Pettersson drove a wedge in the team's locker room, forcing Patrick Allvin to make a move.

Notably, Pettersson did not miss the Canucks locker room clear out day, and he gave us his final thoughts on the matter on Saturday.

Hopefully we can finally put this drama to rest now that the season is over and the two players on on separate teams, but many fans will likely continue to wonder what really happened.

Of course, we may never get the full story from anyone who really knows it.

That being said, Miller did not miss today's event out of spite or as a way to avoid the media.

Rather, he had a very good reason for it as one of his close friends tragically passed away.
