New York Rangers players will begin informal workouts at the team’s training facility in Westchester County this week. For many of them, it will be the first opportunity for them to get back on the ice. Play was halted on March 12 meaning that it has been over 12 weeks of inaction.
The players who remained local during the quarantine phase of the pandemic will be the first to return as other players in North American will make their way back to the New York region. Only six players at a time will be permitted to use the facility meaning that they will have to do it in shifts and that will require some coordination as more players get back to this region.
