Chris Drury continues to put his stamp on the new-look New York Rangers, adding a back-to-back Stanley Cup champion, beginning the process to buy out a player they paid to go away and trading a productive winger to change the makeup of the roster.

The latest move in the offseason makeover came Friday before the NHL draft with the trade of winger Pavel Buchnevich to the St. Louis Blues for forward Sammy Blais and a 2022 second-round pick.

"I feel very good with our depth at winger," Drury said. "It just gives us some flexibility moving forward a little bit for the rest of this offseason. There's only so much to go around, whether it's this year or next year, and certainly ice time is a factor.
