The Edmonton Oilers were unsuccessful in trying to move defenseman Sheldon Souray to another NHL team. The Oilers were hoping to get a draft pick during the weekend's Entry Draft for Souray but could not. "I've had discussions with most teams but haven't been able to do anything with Sheldon at this time," said Oilers GM Steve Tambellini. The Oilers do not want Souray back next season so they will either bury him in the minors once again or buy out the remaining year of his contract which will cost the Oilers $3.6 million on the salary cap, spread out equally over the next two years, but only $3 million in actual cash.
