Wolski dealt from Colorado to Phoenix

Hockey Betting Lines

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.

MySportsbook.com and Kentucky Derby Offer Bonuses
The 2008 Kentucky Derby has announced a $1-million bonus for this weekend’s 134th ‘Run for the Roses’ and MySportsbook.com is doing the same.

Well, not quite $1 million, but MySportsbook.com is offering a 75% rebate for Kentucky Derby lines. Check out the exclusive horse racing bonus for all the details.

According to MySportsbook.com, the favorites for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky are: Curlin (+250); Street Sense (+500); Scat Daddy (+700); Circular Quay (+750); and Nobiz Like Shobiz (+800).

Derby organizers announced this week that there will be a $1-million bonus at the 2007 Kentucky Derby odds if the first-place horse wins by more than 6 1/2 lengths – the margin of Barbaro's victory last year. The bonus would be divided Saturday among the winning trainer, jockey, owner and a charity, with each receiving 25 percent. The designated charity is the Barbaro Memorial Fund.

''It's certainly creative, it's certainly fun and it has something for the horsemen, which we always want to embrace,'' Churchill Downs president and chief executive Robert Evans said at a news conference. ''What's really cool is it will force us to remember Barbaro.''
    
Meanwhile, the Derby favorite – Curlin – is going against the odds this year. It's been 125 years since Apollo won after skipping his 2-year-old season, and not since Regret in 1915 has such a lightly seasoned horse worn the blanket of red roses.

Arkansas Derby winner Curlin – unbeaten in three career races – tries to overcome both those obstacles in Saturday's 133rd Derby.

''We're not running against history,'' trainer Steve Asmussen said Monday. ''We're running against who they load up.''

Six other horses have run in the Derby without benefit of 2-year-old races and with three or fewer starts. The best any of them managed was a sixth-place finish by Showing Up last year.
   
Asmussen dismissed suggestions that Curlin's lack of racing experience could keep him from the winner's circle.

”He exudes confidence and he's got a great presence about him,'' the trainer said. ''I feel great about the position we're in. He's not worried about anything, why should you be?''
   
The Kentucky Derby is at 4:04 p.m., ET Saturday.
