After completing the season, Miromanov was signed as an undrafted free agent to a one-year, entry-level contract with the Vegas Golden Knights on 16 March 2021.[2] He joined the Golden Knights AHL affiliate, the Henderson Silver Knights, for the remainder of the season, registering two assists through five postseason games in the playoffs.
