WINNIPEG -- Marian Gaborik didnt get on the score sheet in his debut with the Los Angeles Kings, but he felt comfortable in a 3-1 victory Thursday over the Winnipeg Jets. Gaborik was acquired in a trade with Columbus on Wednesday and skated on the top line with centre Anze Kopitar and right-winger Justin Williams. "We created some things," said Gaborik, who logged 16:38 of ice time. "We had some good time on the power play as well. "We got some great help by our (defence) offensively as well so I think its going to get better and better." Mike Richards scored the game winner on a Winnipeg giveaway that helped run the Kings (36-22-6) winning streak to six games. "I was just as excited as a lot of the people that were here that came in from (my hometown) of Kenora (Ont.)," Richards said of the 20-plus game tickets he had to find. Captain Dustin Brown had Los Angeles first goal and Alec Martinez added a third-period power-play goal. Goalie Jonathan Quick only needed to make 17 saves for his 20th win of the season. Olli Jokinen notched his 15th goal of the season for Winnipeg (30-27-7) and a busy Ondrej Pavelec stopped 38 shots. "They move the puck well, they can spend a lot of time in your zone," Pavelec said. "We have to forget about this one and focus on the next one." Winnipeg and Phoenix were tied at 67 points heading into the game, one point behind Dallas for the final wild-card spot in the Western Conference. Vancouver was one back of the Jets and Coyotes. Vancouver was visiting Dallas on Thursday night and Phoenix was hosting Montreal. "I liked the speed of the game that we started the game with," Jets head coach Paul Maurice said. "I thought we moved the puck sharp and we moved our feet. And then I thought we ran into the L.A. Kings. "When theyre at their best, they will take your game and frustrate you to the point that you start to change what youre trying to do because theres nothing given easily." The biggest cheer in the scoreless first period was for Jets forward Dustin Byfuglien, after he sent Kings defenceman Jake Muzzin over the boards into the bottom of Winnipegs bench. Los Angeles outshot the Jets 11-7 in the opening frame. Winnipeg didnt get its first shot of the second period until almost seven minutes in, but the Jets scored on their 11th of the game. Evander Kane went around Kings defenceman Drew Doughty and then beat Muzzin to the puck off the boards behind the net, sending a quick pass to Jokinen who shot the puck past Quick at 12:03. But the jubilation of the MTS Centre only lasted 42 seconds. Brown scored his 12th goal of the season after centre Jarret Stoll sent a long backhand pass across the front of the net that hit Browns skate and the puck trickled across the goal-line past Pavelec at 12:45. Then Jets defenceman Tobias Enstrom, at the boards by the Kings bench, made a pass across the ice that was supposed to be for Jokinen. Richards intercepted it halfway, crossed the blue-line and then fired a shot by Pavelec at 16:15 for his ninth of the season. Los Angeles also outshot the Jets 10-6 in the second. The Kings are now 19-0-0 this season when leading after the second period. With Jets forward Blake Wheeler in the penalty box for high-sticking, defenceman Martinez scored unassisted at 15:51 with a shot on Pavelecs blocker side. The Jets had to juggle all four lines from Tuesdays 3-2 overtime loss to the New York Islanders because of injuries. Winnipeg rookie centre Mark Scheifele sprained the medial collateral ligament in his right knee during the loss. The second-line centre is out for at least four weeks and possibly the rest of the regular season. Forward Chris Thorburn was also injured in the game and is listed day-to-day with an upper-body injury. Those deletions made Maurice put his top line of Andrew Ladd, centre Bryan Little and Wheeler back together. Jokinen was centring the second line with Kane and Byfuglien. Michael Frolik, whos only played a few games at centre during his six-year NHL career, was put in the middle with Matt Halischuk and Devin Setoguchi. The fourth line was centred by Jim Slater with Eric Tangradi and Anthony Peluso. Winnipeg hosts Ottawa on Saturday afternoon and the Kings play in Edmonton Sunday. Wholesale Air Max For Sale .

Ellis have avoided arbitration, agreeing to a one-year contract. NEWARK, N.J. -- The Vancouver Canucks have solved their goaltender drama, but not in the way most people expected. The Canucks traded Cory Schneider to the New Jersey Devils for the ninth pick in the NHL draft, leaving Roberto Luongo as the starting goalie. "Todays decision was made after a thorough review of our options and in the interest of improving this team long-term through the draft and development of players," general manager Mike Gillis said in a statement. "We appreciate the high level of professionalism and conduct both Cory and Roberto have shown while continuing to help this team be competitive. I would like to personally thank Cory for his contributions to our team and wish him the very best and a bright future." Gillis said he "had to listen" to offers on Schneider. The one he took got the Canucks London Knights forward Bo Horvat at No. 9. Horvat, an 18-year-old centre, played the past two seasons for the Knights of the Ontario Hockey League. He had 33 goals and 28 assists in 2012-13. When the trade was annoounced, Horvat was surprised, like everyone else in Prudential Center.dddddddddddd He had no idea the Canucks were going to take him. "Anything can happen on draft day," Horvat said. Horvat will undoubtedly be under the microscope after being part of the trade that ended Schneiders Canucks tenure and re-inserted Luongo as the starter. "I dont feel any pressure, actually," Horvat said. "I think its more exciting than anything. Im just really happy to be part of the organization. I cant wait to get there and show them that I can be that guy that they picked me at 9 (for)." Schneider, 27, has two years left on a contract that counts US$4 million against the salary cap. Veteran Devils goaltender Martin Brodeur turned 41 in May and has one year left. The Canucks also had the 24th selection in the first round and picked Western Hockey League forward Hunter Shinkaruk, who was ranked as fifth among North American skaters by NHL Central Scouting. Shinkaruk had 49 goals and 37 assists to lead the Medicine Hat Tigers. ' ' '
