New York Rangers: Chris Drury Set To Return, Interest In Fedor Tyutin?

Reports spread throughout the twitter community with the news that New York Rangers' captain, Chris Drury, should be set to return from his second broken-hand injury of the 2010-11 NHL season.

Rangers' beat writers Andrew Gross (The Record), Steve Zipay (Newsday), and Jim Cerny (Rangers Official Website), have all reported the Chris Drury news break. With Drury set to return a move may be made to make roster space.

Veteran center Todd White seems to be the odd-man out of the lineup, and off the roster at this point in time.

Fedor Tyutin
According to multiple reports coming from the NYPost, RangersTribune, and CanyonOfBlues, the New York Rangers may have interest in reacquiring left-handed defenseman Fedor Tyutin. "Toots" was part of a trade that saw the Rangers acquire Nikolai (now Nikolay) Zherdev two seasons ago. The Rangers are need of a Tyutin-type defenseman, and may be willing to part ways with a forward or a defenseman to acquire him from the Columbus Blue Jackets.

If any trade does occur, expect it to happen sooner than later as the annual "NHL December Roster Freeze" approaches.

That's all for now.
