EL SEGUNDO, Calif. Custom Chicago Bulls Jersey . - Marian Gaboriks new teammates with the Los Angeles Kings initially wondered whether such a talented goal-scorer could fit into a defence-dominated team when he arrived in a trade last month. Nobody is wondering anymore after Gaborik helped the Kings reach the post-season on a roll. "It took me a little bit, but I think I adjusted pretty good," Gaborik said Tuesday while the Kings prepared for their first-round opener against San Jose. Gaborik scored 16 points in 19 games as the Kings top-line left wing down the stretch, adapting his game to coach Darryl Sutters preferences while still providing his own unique offensive talents to the NHLs best defensive team. He fits in well in his third dressing room in two seasons, with teammates praising the veterans commitment and talent with equal enthusiasm. "I think hes been our best player since hes got here," defenceman Drew Doughty said. "No matter who gets traded here, you wonder how theyre going to fit into the system," Doughty added. "(But) he played in Minnesota. He knew how to play that system back in the day. Hes obviously amazing offensively, but he is good defensively. He tries his best, and thats all you can ask." Although Los Angeles has reached back-to-back conference finals, offence is seemingly always a concern. The Kings are the lowest-scoring team in the NHL post-season with just 198 regular-season goals, but Gaboriks arrival has assuaged many fears about their ability to score enough goals to win in the spring. Gaboriks impressive speed immediately changed opponents defensive game plans after his arrival from Columbus. He finally became the goal-scoring left wing that the Kings have long lacked to play alongside Anze Kopitar, Los Angeles sublime playmaker and two-way centre. Justin Williams plays the right side on a suddenly potent top line, and Gaboriks arrival allowed the Kings to balance out their depth lines as well. Gaborik has five goals with his famously vicious wrist shot, but he has been even more valuable with 11 assists. He put together a three-point game in the Kings road finale in Edmonton last Thursday. Gaborik sees nothing special in his handling of what could have been a rough assignment in Los Angeles. Playing for Sutter didnt scare Gaborik after his experience under coaches with similar defensive demands such as Jacques Lemaire in Minnesota and John Tortorella with the Rangers. "Just go out there, work hard and follow the system," Gaborik said. "Make sure youre on the right side of the puck, and be in the right position when youre skating. Be on top of things." Gaboriks arrival and Los Angeles ensuing excellence have echoed the Kings success two years ago after they acquired Jeff Carter from Columbus during a disappointing regular season. Carter added his goal-scoring skills to a low-scoring lineup, and the Kings goals-per-game average rose — just as it did this season after Gaborik pulled on a black jersey. Doughty initially thought Gaborik was "more of just a scorer," but quickly realized there was much more to his new teammate. "Hes kind of a guy like Carts, where Carts just seems to put pucks in the net," Doughty said. "You dont understand how it goes in. It just goes in. Hell obviously get the pretty ones, too, but I thought he was just a pure goal-scorer. Just sat in the slot and found pucks and put them in. But hes a great passer, too, and hes good at finding open ice. Hes good at getting support for his linemates and getting them out of a battle and then making a play to create an opportunity." While still near the prime of his career, the 32-year-old Gaborik is an impending free agent with a history of injury woes, so he realizes the urgency of every remaining chance at a Stanley Cup title. He has reached two conference finals in his NHL career, but never played for the Cup. "You get that feeling that youre getting close, but its really hard," Gaborik said. "Im really going to embrace this opportunity and take it, and Im very excited for that. It doesnt come every year, and we feel we have a good team to do it."

As for regular Olympic spectators, theyre being warned that most travel insurance policies wont cover acts of terrorism or war. The Games in southern Russia, which run from Feb. 7-23, are being staged amid unprecedented security and under global warnings of danger.LOS ANGELES -- Adrian Gonzalez had the kind of game that has enabled him to drive in 100 or more runs six times in his big league career. And hes closing in on another one. The slugging first baseman tied a season best with five RBIs, including a go-ahead, three-run homer, and the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the New York Mets 7-4 Saturday night. "Adrians a day-in, day-out kind of grinder that picks up one, picks up two -- and obviously tonight picks up five," manager Don Mattingly said. "Hes one of those guys who good at driving in runs with a guy on third and putting the ball in play when he needs to. As far as consistency, I dont think weve had anybody quite like him," he said. The Dodgers beat the Mets for the 13th time in 15 meetings and increased their NL West lead over San Francisco to 4 1/2 games. Zack Greinke (13-8) allowed four runs -- three earned -- and nine hits in seven innings, throwing 105 pitches on seven days rest. He struck out four after he was pushed back two days because of elbow discomfort. "Im sure it helped some," Greinke said. "I thought I pitched really well. I felt great again today. And so hopefully thats how it stays. It was just kind of a weird circumstance that gave me extra time this turn." The 2009 AL Cy Young Award winner allowed two homers for the third time this season, a three-run shot by Juan Lagares and Lucas Dudas 24th of the year. Kenley Jansen pitched a scoreless ninth for his 37th save. Jacob deGrom (6-6) gave up five runs and five hits over six innings and struck out seven after getting reinstated from the disabled list. The rookie right-hander, who was sidelined with rotator cuff tendinitis, threw 86 pitches and also had two hits in his first start since Aug. 7. Gonzalez, who leads the Dodgers with 87 RBIs, gave them a 5-3 lead in the fifth with his 18th homer after Greinke singled and deGrom walked Carl Crawford with two outs. The Dodgers hit three homers against deGrom in a 4-3 road win on May 21, but he has yielded just two in 75 1-3 innings over his last 12 outings. "I felt good. But a lot of outings come down to a few pitches, and I didnt make the big pitches when I needed to," deGrom said. Lagares opened the scoring in the fourth with his third homer after Duda singled and Travis dArnaud reached on a fielding error by third baseman Miguel Rojas. Gonzalez got one of thhe runs back in the bottom half with an RBI single and added a sacrifice fly in the seventh. Kris Dunn Jersey. Mets All-Star third baseman David Wright was 0 for 5 with two double-play grounders and two strikeouts, lowering his average to .265. The franchises all-time leader in a number of key offensive categories is batting just .206 over his last 26 games with four RBIs and 19 strikeouts, and has grounded into 21 double plays. Manager Terry Collins isnt ready to give him a day off. "I dont think the stars need that stuff. Theyve got to figure it out on the field," Collins said. "This guy is the leader on this team, and we need him out there. But in my time here, I havent seen him scuffle like he has this year. In my daily conversations with him, hes not hurt. Hes healthy. But I certainly dont have an answer to why hes going through what hes gone through." Daniel Murphy had a pair of singles, raising his NL-leading hit total to 157. TRAINERS ROOM Mets: Injuries have hurt the Mets this season. They are 60-70 and 15 games out in the NL East. "I dont think about stuff like that too much, because all teams deal with them," Collins said. "Youve got to play through it. I mean, we lost Matt (Harvey), and thats a big piece. He would have made a big difference. But he wasnt here, and somebody else had to step up. You never want injuries -- but in our case, there are some things we got out of it that we wouldnt have otherwise. If Matt didnt get hurt, maybe we wouldnt have found deGrom. Who knows? So weve found some positives." Dodgers: CF Yasiel Puig, batting .247 this month with no homers and four RBIs in 83 at-bats, got the night off because his legs were bothering him. "I knew he was getting beat up and he said he was tired, so we thought today was the right day," Mattingly said. UP NEXT Mets: Bartolo Colon (11-10, 3.85 ERA) will make his first start Sunday since his mother, Adriana, died Monday at age 63 from breast cancer. After the game, he will return to the Dominican Republic to attend her funeral. Dodgers: Kevin Correia (7-13, 4.87) gets the assignment on his 34th birthday, trying to win his third straight start since Los Angeles acquired him from Minnesota. Correia hasnt faced the Mets since Sept. 27, 2012, with Pittsburgh, when R.A. Dickey beat him for the 20th victory of the knuckleballers Cy Young Award season.
