You can trade a Cam Neely to a team outside of the conference even and that trade can still come back to bite your ass 20+ years later in the SCF.
return for him!

Just wait till Schneider is the reason we get knocked out of the playoffs in a couple seasons (if he gets traded interdivision/interconference). It'll be a shitfest all around Vancouver. Not to mention we'll play a shitload of games against him if it happens.
No GM will be reluctant to move his players if the return is great (and fits the teams needs to a certain extent). If it gives us a bigger chance to "win now" then yeah I'd totally agree with that but GMMG pretty much put himself in a position that could have been avoided.....Schnoo shouldn't be even on the trade block and this wouldn't have even been mentioned
