MST to EST never changes by an hour
Both are United States zones, both change their clocks on the second Sunday in March and the first Sunday in November, and both move by the same hour on the same morning. There is no date on which this conversion is anything other than 2 hours ahead.
What changes is the name. Between March and November those same two clocks are properly called MDT and EDT, for Mountain Daylight Time and Eastern Daylight Time. Almost nobody switches, and it does not matter here: whoever writes MST in July has the right time and the wrong letters.

Booking a call between Denver and New York
You share about 6 hours of a normal nine-to-five day. 9:00am to 3:00pm in MST is 11:00am to 5:00pm in EST, inside office hours at both ends, and the only window where neither side is doing you a favour.
When it is 9:00am in Denver it is 11:00am in New York. When New York opens at 9:00am, Denver reads 7:00am.
MST covers the US mountain states and Alberta: Denver, Phoenix, Salt Lake City, Calgary. EST covers the US east coast and eastern Canada: New York, Toronto, Atlanta, Miami, Boston.
PDT to EST, MDT to EDT, CST to EDT are the same conversion
PDT to EST, MDT to EDT, CST to EDT describe exactly the same 2 hours shift as MST to EST. The letters differ because they name the winter and summer forms of the same clocks; the arithmetic does not differ at all.
So the table above answers those queries too. There is no second page to look for, and no version of the year in which the answer is different.
MST to EST: common questions
What time is it in EST when it is 9am MST?
11:00am. EST is 2 hours ahead of MST. The table above runs the same conversion for every hour of the day.
Is MST to EST ever a different number of hours?
No. Both are United States zones and both change their clocks on the same two mornings, so the difference is 2 hours in January and the same in July. The abbreviations change to MDT and EDT in summer; the gap does not.
Does converting MST to EST ever change the date?
For most of the working day, no. The two clocks stay on the same calendar day. Late evening and very early morning can straddle midnight, which is why the table above shows the day alongside the time.
What is a good time to schedule a call between MST and EST?
You share about 6 hours of the normal nine-to-five working day: 9:00am to 3:00pm in MST is 11:00am to 5:00pm in EST. Anything inside that window is inside office hours at both ends.
