Meuller and Brian Lee mentioned in trade rumors

It has been reported that the New York Rangers tried to make a play for Peter Mueller of the Phoenix coyotes this past weekend. From the Toronto Sun....

A league source said Leafs GM Brian Burke expressed an interest in Phoenix forward Peter Mueller but didn't have the right assets to strike a deal. Mueller, 21, who has just one goal and five assists in 26 games this season, was the Coyotes' No. 1 choice in the 2006.

And from the Columbus Dispatch came a report that the Blue Jackets are interested in Moorhead native Brian Lee who has bounced back and forth from the Senators to the AHL the past two seasons.

The Blue Jackets have expressed an interest in Ottawa Senators prospect defenseman Brian Lee. No trade is imminent. In fact, it's possible that no trade specifics have even been discussed, but the Blue Jackets have made a call to Ottawa. One must wonder if Lee wouldn't be part of a package coming the Blue Jackets' way should they decide to trade prospect forward Nikita Filatov. [Columbus Dispatch]
