Chris Drury continues working his way through his to-do list and in his latest move he has hired Ryan Martin as his Assistant General Manager and General Manager of the Hartford Wolf Pack. This is a key position in the New York Rangers organization as Martin will function as Drury’s righthand man.

The hiring was first reported by Larry Brooks of the New York Post. Martin held the same position with the Detroit Red Wings and as recently as this week he had announced Detroit’s extension of their ECHL affiliation with the Toledo Walleye.
