Tonight, J.T. Miller had an explosive moment with the media after a historically bad start to the season for his New York Rangers squad.

J.T. Miller is just a few games into his first full season of his second tenure with the New York Rangers.
Despite being new to the team, Miller was named the captain of the New York Rangers before opening night.
Since then, things have gone incredibly poorly for the Rangers as they are 2-3 but have not won or even scored a goal at home yet this season.
With this abysmal start at home most recently capped by a loss to the Oilers the Rangers set an NHL record as the first team to be shut out in each of their first three home games.
This stat of course has fans and media members alarmed for the team's chances of making a deep Stanley Cup Playoff run.
When asked about the historically bad run, Miller decided to take his frustrations out on the media.

J.T. Miller Fires Back at the Media After Historic Loss to the Oilers

After the loss to the Oilers, Miller was asked about the significance of such a monumentally bad start.
In his response, Miller shut down the impact of the record calling it a unique situation and reminded everyone it is still early in the season.
This response from Miller is on track with his personality as a fiery player who is direct with his communication but definitely could rub some people the wrong way similarly to how things went wrong with Elias Pettersson in Vancouver.
With the Oilers in the rear view mirror, the Rangers next opportunity to get their first home win of the season will come Monday against the Minnesota Wild.
