Bit surprised he couldn't find at least one NHL team to take a flyer on him.

I don't think that's the case, I'm rather confident there would have been a couple of teams willing to add him IF he was healthy. Probably done enough damage to his body, made enough money, and is ready to have a life/family.

Drury: "I would like to thank the NYR organisation for overpayment and commit to me for this long contract like to any of the previous players, esp Holik, Karsporitis, Gomez, over the course of the decade. With this contract, Me and my family are comfortable with the financial situation that I can retire 10 years ahead of my expected playing time. I hate hockey and I would like to start my career in finance" - reported by Hong

Now that's funny since it's kind of true. Ranger is the worst team to give out contract that they can't explain. Like How can you still be a gm after making soo many errors.

Because they can attract the biggest names and have no deficit on the budget.
