The Hartford Wolf Pack hired former New York Rangers’ captain Chris Drury as their general manager a few weeks ago. He will have had about a month and a half to prepare for his first offseason in his role, where he is in charge of a complete revamp of the Wolf Pack, a team who finished in last place in 16-17.
With that comes a lot of tough decisions. Drury has to sift through 10 different free agents track records, some UFA and some RFA, and decide who will be back for 17-18 and beyond. Hartford certainly can’t get any worse, but Drury, who also must hire a minor league coach now, is facing a lot of pressure to get this thing right.
