New York Rangers hockey on January 1? No way

The NHL and the NHLPA are at loggerheads. That means no New York Rangers hockey on January 1

Things are looking bad for an “on time” start to the New York Rangers’ 2020-21 season. The start date was supposed to be January 1, but with the NHL Owners and the Players Union not talking, it doesn’t look that is at all possible. As a matter of fact, despite the protestations of Gary Bettman, there is the distinct possibility that the season will be cancelled.

The issue is well known.
