The New York Rangers and J.T. Miller avoided arbitration by coming to terms on a new contract, the team announced Wednesday.

While the terms were not disclosed, Tim Wharnsby of CBC.ca reports it's a two-year deal that will pay him $2.5 million next season and $2.75 million in 2017-18.

After managing just 15 goals and 33 points during his first three years in the league, Miller broke out this season scoring 22 goals and 43 points in 82 games.

The 23-year-old was scheduled to have an arbitration hearing Aug. 2.
