Rangers’ Miller: Spitting at Kings’ Doughty was accidental
NEW YORK (AP) — K’Andre Miller of the New York Rangers says spitting at L.A. Kings defenseman Drew Doughty was completely accidental. Miller in a message posted on social media said he would never intend to spit at an opponent on purpose and that it goes against everything he is as a person. The 23-year-old said he felt awful about the incident and thanked Doughty for giving him the opportunity to apologize after the game. Miller was given a match penalty and ejected. It’s not clear if Miller will be suspended by the NHL for spitting.
