NY Rangers announce prospects and schedule for first development camp since 2019

It's been over two years since the New York Rangers hosted their own development camp.

The COVID-19 pandemic forced them to work with their prospects from afar, but the hands-on treatment will resume Friday. That's when the Blueshirts will open their 2021 Development Camp, with 27 young players set to descend on the MSG Training Center in Tarrytown for the extended 10-day camp.

PROSPECT RANKINGS: No. 6 defenseman Matthew Robertson

PROSPECT RANKINGS: No. 7 forward Morgan Barron

It will run through Sept. 20, with eight training days and two rookie games scheduled against prospects from the Philadelphia Flyers. One will be played Sept. 18 at the MSG Training Center and the other on Sept. 19 at the Flyers' training center in Voorhees, N.J.

Here is the complete list of Rangers' prospects who will participate in the camp (listed with jersey numbers):
