Its a huge factor in my opinion, arriving at Settle for example at 3am is not an easy transition.
A team like the Rangers, has a easy travel schedule

Yes, because most of the league is within 900 miles of them. We can't move Calgary, or move the Rangers to Medicine Hat. A lot of teams that have travel problems are doing quite well. Dallas (the most isolated team in the league), Las Vegas, Edmonton.
The conjecture that was made is that scheduling has a significant impact on results. So far I'm not convinced.
