The New York Rangers concluded their 2021 NHL Entry Draft with picks in the fifth and seventh round. Keeping the last two picks meant that they drafted a total of eight prospects. Any pick as low as the fifth round has to be considered a coin toss.

In the ten draft from 2008 to 2017, they have picked 26 players in the fifth round or later.
