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.

American Idol odds : Blake Lewis the Early Standout

An important American Idol betting lines recap from February 20 Guys episode. The 12 men came out flat overall with Blake Lewis appearing to have the early edge after the first hour and a half.

Rudy - was quite good singing "Free Ride" to start off.  Randy was not impressed though.  Paula thought he started off fantastic.  "Never had anyone stop off so lively" said Paula but Simon (who does not like Rudy) does not feel he has a distinct voice and was not impressed either. 

Brandon was a little pitchy according to Randy and Paula agreed.  Simon said he was a good singer but the song was "too safe" and he needs to make an impact.  He was listed at +1200 odds or $1200 paid out on a $100 bet should he win the competition. 

Big favorite Sundance came in with a flat version of "Knights in White Satin" and the judges let him have it, including Paula.  Randy claimed the song was out of pitch throughout.

Korean American - and a Jenny Woo favorite - Paul Kim was up next.  Another pitchy flat one but Randy said he still liked his potential.  Kim at +3000 odds was said to have sung a "third rate version of that (George Michael) song" according to Simon Cowell.  He sang "Careless Whisper".

22 year old Chris Richardson was up next.  He was listed with +1100 odds coming in.  He got the best response from the judges though Simon did not believe the vocal was that great. 

Nick was boring and pitchy.  Simon didn't think he was that bad though and predicted he would be back next week.  Nick Pedro was a big +3000 dog coming into this competition. 

Beat boxer Blake Lewis was listed with early +1000 odds or $1000 payout on a $100 bet if he were to become the next American Idol winner odds .  These of course were the early odds.  He was considered original for picking an "odd song".  He did not beat box and the judges felt it was the best vocal of the night. 

Sanjaya came in as the second biggest favorite after Chris Sligh but his performance Tuesday night was not very good. 

Chris Sleigh was the early favorite at +450 odds.  Great voice and a great sense of humor.  He's a real standout.  Randy felt it was on point but maybe ahead of the chorus a little bit.  Simon Cowell said he felt like he was in some "sort of weird student gig". 

Jared Cotter followed.  He was listed with +2000 odds early on to win the competition.  The judges felt he needs to take more risks but looked good. 

22-year old AJ Talbado, who has tried out for American Idol five times, was up next.  "Kind of a theme park performance" said Simon.  Though the judges felt he performed okay.  Simon did feel AJ might be better than he originally thought.

Phil - this season's military favorite - came into this competition with +1200 odds to win the competition.  He was the last to perform.  He was certainly strong enough to get through this stage of the competition and perhaps the best one after a shaky start. 

Tomorrow night, the ladies perform and I sure hope they do a better job than the boys.  Check out all the American Idol betting odds here.
