Coyotes, Blackhawks look to begin playoff push

Feb 27, 2008 - 1:30 PM Phoenix (32-26-5) at Chicago (29-27-6) 8:30 pm EST

CHICAGO (Ticker) - The Phoenix Coyotes and Chicago Blackhawks were active before the trade deadline, hoping the moves will lead to Western Conference playoff berths.

The teams face off for the fourth time on Wednesday. Chicago has won two of the first three games between the teams.

The Coyotes acquired left wing Marcel Hossa and minor league goaltender Al Montoya from the New York Rangers for right wing Fredrik Sjostrom, a conditional draft pick and a pair of minor leaguers in goaltender David LeNeveu and left wing Josh Gratton.

The Blackhawks made a pair of deals - sending right wing Martin Lapointe to Ottawa for a sixth-round pick in this year's draft, while picking up left wing Andrew Ladd from Carolina for forward Tuomo Ruutu. Ladd was the Hurricanes' first-round pick in the 2004 draft.

Phoenix, which has already surpassed last year's point total with 19 games to play, is 4-1-1 in its last six games. The Coyotes are three points out of the West's final playoff spot.

The Blackhawks are eight points back of the final playoff spot in the West. Chicago is 5-2-1 since rookie center Jonathan Toews (18 goals, 24 assists) returned from a 16-game absence due to a sprained right knee.
