The New York Rangers are looking to upgrade in a massive way ahead of the March 8 trade deadline, but according to reports, the Montreal Canadiens may no longer be an option.

According to NHL Insider Elliotte Friedman, Chris Drury, General Manager of the New York Rangers and Jeff Gorton, Executive VP of Hockey Operations in Montreal are not on good terms, and it may ultimately limit a trade.

Being a GM in the NHL is all about building relationships, and unfortunately Drury hasn't done that in Montreal, and it may ultimately effect a potential deal for Sean Monahan.

Unsurprisingly, fans have reacted in almost the same way, pointing out just how childish the whole situation appears to be, and just how bad of a look it is for both parties.

In sports you can truly never say never, so if Drury can deal with just Kent Hughes, things may look much better for a potential trade, but right now this story just makes the Rangers GM look silly as he aims to upgrade the roster.
