While the New York Rangers 2021 schedule is very ambitious it is not unreasonable

The 2021 season for the New York Rangers will begin on January 13. The estimated date for the season to end is May 8. That means that the New York Rangers will have to play 56 games in 116 days. It’s an ambitious schedule, but even with COVID-19 issues, they should be able to get it done and start the playoffs in a timely fashion.
