New York Rangers defenseman K’Andre Miller is facing a possible suspension from the NHL after he was ejected for spitting at Los Angeles Kings star Drew Doughty.
The Rangers beat the Kings 5-2 on Sunday night, with Vincent Trochek stealing the show with two goals and one assist to end a run of four-straight defeats. But one Rangers star that didn't see out the game was Miller, who was handed a game penalty for spitting at Doughty.
The incident occurred during the first period of the game, and Miller and Doughty came face-to-face while a scrum formed between the two teams. Miller was instantly ejected as it appeared as though he spat in the face of his opponent, and could face further repercussions.
