It Won't Happen, But Oilers GM Tambellini Wants 1st AND 2nd Picks

Check out this quote from ESPN's Pierre LeBrun. He's talking to Bruins GM Peter Chiarelli about his talks with Edmonton Oilers GM Steve Tambellini on Friday before the draft.

"I spoke with Steve this morning and I told him what I told him before: that we're not in a position to make a significant offer to allow us to pick the player we want in the first two picks," Chiarelli told ESPN.com early Friday afternoon. "But he inquired about trading for the second pick and I have to give him credit. He's been really persistent in trying to get that pick. But I told him, as I've been telling everyone else, that I'm not moving the second pick."

That's right. Tambellini has the number one pick and he's trying to make a play for the second pick as well. It's not going to happen, as Chiarelli mentions above, but it's funny pretty awesome that Tambellini tried.
