03/03/2010 - Glendale, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Phoenix Coyotes have acquired left wing Wojtek Wolski from the Colorado Avalanche in exchange for forwards Peter Mueller and Kevin Porter.
Wolski had spent his entire career with the Avalanche, who made him the 21st overall pick of the 2004 draft. He has 17 goals and 30 assists for 47 points in 62 games this season, and was leading Colorado with a plus-15 rating.
The 24-year-old native of Poland, who is set to become a free agent at the conclusion of the season, immediately becomes one of Phoenix's top offensive threats. His point total of 47 matches that of Coyotes leader Shane Doan.
"Wojtek Wolski is a terrific young offensive player," said Coyotes general manager Don Maloney. "He is a talented goal scorer that will help us offensively and on the power play. He has great size and is just entering the prime of his career."
In 302 NHL games, Wolski has 73 goals with 120 assists for 193 points.
Mueller, the eighth overall pick of the 2006 draft, has just four goals and 13 assists in 54 games this season. He scored 22 goals in his rookie season of 2007-08 with Phoenix, but last year slumped to 13 goals and 36 points in 72 games.
"Peter is a skilled young player who has a tremendous upside," said Avalanche general manager Greg Sherman. "We feel he will be an important addition to our lineup."
Porter has appeared in just four games for the Coyotes this season without registering a point. He notched five goals and five assists in 34 games for the Coyotes last season in his first taste of NHL action.

The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.
Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.
The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East. Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.
