Rangers extend GM Chris Drury after missing playoffs

Chris Drury has secured a multiyear contract extension as president and general manager of the New York Rangers, marking his return after a missed playoff run in 2023-24. Despite efforts to reload this season, the team faced inconsistent play leading to another missed playoff opportunity. Drury made significant roster changes, including key trade acquisitions like J.T. Miller, while also parting ways with star players. With limited cap space and a competitive coaching market, the Rangers aim to rebuild under his leadership.
