Here we go again. In a surprising midday message, New York Rangers President and General Manager Chris Drury released a letter announcing that the Rangers are officially entering a full “reu2011tool” mode.

Drury’s letter reads like a Bat Signal in the sky — aimed at fans, rival GMs, and his own locker room. He admits the season has fallen well below expectations, hints at the frustration boiling inside the organization, and starts prepping fans for real roster movement — all while tiptoeing around the word “rebuild” like it’s radioactive.
