As long as there are no gouges, rough spots or a varnish deposit on the shaft, key or bore or even something in the key slots keeping the key slightly elevated it should slide on fairly easily. You might try polishing or dressing everything slightly with oiled fine grit crocus cloth first. IMO some heat to expand the sprocket slightly would not hurt if nothing else helps. Just need to have good gloves and work fairly fast before it cools back down to size. Any chance the new chain is not seating well enough and is pulling the sprocket tight or at too much an angle?
