After the 2010/11 season, the next draft election took place when the attacker in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft was selected 15th in the first round by the New York Rangers in the National Hockey League . The Rangers signed Miller directly in late July 2011 and ordered him to join the Plymouth Whalers in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) just a few days later . After a year in the OHL and a year and a half with the former Rangers farm team in the AHL, the Connecticut Whale , Miller played alternately for the Rangers and their current farm team Hartford Wolf Pack from 2013 to 2015 . At the beginning of the 2015/16 season, however, he established himself in the NHL squad and played all 82 regular season games during this season, becoming the team's fifth-best scorer with 43 points.

In February 2018 Miller and Ryan McDonagh were handed over to the Tampa Bay Lightning for the trade deadline . In return, the Rangers Wladislaw Namestnikow , the young players Libor Hájek and Brett Howden received a first-round vote for the 2018 NHL Entry Draft and another second-round vote. The latter should become one for the first draft round, provided the Lightning win the Stanley Cup in the next two years . Miller also signed a new five-year contract in Tampa in June 2018, which should earn him an average annual salary of $ 5.25 million.

In June 2019, however, the Lightning gave it to the Vancouver Canucks and in return received Marek Mazanec , a conditional first-round vote in the NHL Entry Draft 2020 and a third-round vote in the NHL Entry Draft 2019 . The right to vote in the first round will be postponed by one year if the Canucks miss the playoffs of the 2019/20 season.
