EL SEGUNDO, Calif. Cheap Adidas NHL Jerseys . - Defenceman Jake Muzzin agreed to a five-year, $20 million contract extension with the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday, passing on a chance at free agency to stick with the defending Stanley Cup champions Muzzin hasnt played for the Kings yet this season while recovering from an upper-body injury, but his new deal keeps him with the Kings through the 2019-20 season. This is the place I want to stay, and I want to play here for a long time, Muzzin said after practice at the Kings training complex. Im happy we got a deal done. Los Angeles signed Muzzin as a free agent in January 2010 after he went undrafted in 2009, but he has evolved into a solid NHL defenceman with the potential for even more. Muzzin usually plays alongside Drew Doughty in the Kings top defensive pairing, and his new deal extends through his first few potential seasons of unrestricted free agency. Good for Jake, good for us, Kings coach Darryl Sutter said. It just shows the progress that the organization and he have made in terms of developing and getting better, and finding your spot and knowing youre in a good place. Muzzin is beloved among aficionados of advanced hockey statistics for the Kings puck-possession and shot-differential success when hes on the ice. The Woodstock, Ontario, native also is respected by old-school hockey types like Sutter and Doughty for his toughness and big shot. Muzzin has scored 41 points in 132 regular-season games for the Kings, and he added 15 points in 43 playoff games over the past two seasons. He led all NHL defencemen with six playoff goals last season during the Kings 26-game championship run. From the previous year before that, to build off that year and to carry that into last year, the way it ended up was very special for everyone, Muzzin said. Just to build from those experiences, and then to get a deal done early and get that off everyones mind, Im happy. Muzzin made his NHL debut and played in 11 games for the Kings during the 2010-11 season, but didnt crack the lineup in 2011-12. He was a healthy scratch during Los Angeles run to its first Stanley Cup title that spring. Muzzin joined Marian Gaborik in agreeing to a contract possibly worth less than his value on the open free-agent market to stay with the Kings, who are trying to stay positioned for long-term success and stability after winning 10 playoff series in the past three years. Muzzin isnt likely to make his season debut for the Kings (2-1-1) this week, but hopes to return before Los Angeles six-game homestand ends next week. To get it done now, I can just concentrate on getting healthy and getting ready to go, Muzzin said.

"Go home, drop the family off at the airport so time to go home and clean up the house and get it ready for getting stuff shipped," said Buehrle of what will be a quiet night. Buehrle made his noise on the mound, tossing 6 1/3 innings of seven-hit, one-run ball against a Yankees lineup that featured every starter save for an injured Jacoby Ellsbury. He threw 94 pitches, 59 for strikes and was his usual efficient self, issuing no walks. He didnt strike out anyone, either. The Blue Jays won 3-1. "Hes looked a little different this spring," said manager John Gibbons. "Everythings just right. His locations on. I think hes popping the ball a little bit better. Of course I saw him last year, I hadnt seen him in any spring before that but I know hes feeling good and I think hes a little bit surprised about how good he feels and thats a good thing." Buehrle hadnt pitched in a Grapefruit League game since March 7. On that day, he threw 31 of 44 pitches for strikes and was insistent that his changeup was the best it had been in any game in three years. In between, Buehrle made two starts in minor league games. Cognizant of his opponent, Buehrle threw fewer offspeed pitches on Sunday, focusing on his fastball. "We face these guys a lot so I came out and just said, hey, lets work on a lot of fastballs, location," said Buehrle. "I dont want to say trick them because obviously Ive been in the league for 12, 13 years so they know what I throw but just didnt want to show them everything." The plan is for Buehrle to start on Friday night in Montreal, the first of two exhibition games the Jays will play against the New York Mets at Olympic Stadium. Pitching coach Pete Walker draws up the assignments and didnt give Buehrle the choice of traveling or staying back in Florida to throw in a minor league game. Thats just fine with Buehrle, whos looking to pitch in front of a large crowd, in a large stadium, this close to opening day. "It definitely helps out," said Buehrle. "You get in that atmosphere, the adrenaline pumps a little mmore, theres a bigger crowd even coming here, everything just kind of clicks and it just becomes real once the game starts. Wholesale NHL Jerseys China. " Fridays start wont be Buehrles first at the Big O. His only previous outing came on June 18, 2004, an 11-7 White Sox win over the Expos. Buehrle pitched six innings but, as he put it, he got his "ass kicked." He allowed seven runs on 10 hits and got a no-decision. Reyes Update Jose Reyes wasnt in the Blue Jays lineup on Sunday, one day after leaving Saturdays win over the Tigers in the fourth inning with stiffness in his left hamstring. "It feels a little better," said manager John Gibbons. "We still dont think its a big deal." Reyes is listed as day to day. The Second Catcher Erik Kratz and Josh Thole are in a battle for the second catchers job behind Dioner Navarro. Its going down to the wire. "The number one job is going be able to catch Dickey," said Gibbons. "You want some offence but the number one thing (is) theyve got to be able to catch Dickey." Navarro played in 89 games for the Cubs last season, far and away his most since appearing in 115 games for the Rays in 2009. With that in mind, the Jays anticipate the second catcher having to play more. Kratz offers more offence but Dickey is most comfortable pitching to Thole. Dickeys thrown 565 2/3 career innings with Thole as his battery mate. Henry Blanco, at 127 innings, ranks a distant second. "I think theyve both done a good job so its a tough call," said Gibbons. Dickey, as he did last spring when the decision was made to take Blanco over Thole, insists he doesnt have, and insists he doesnt want, input in the process. Timeline for Roster Finalization Gibbons hopes to have his final roster determined before the Blue Jays leave for Montreal, where theyll play two exhibition games versus the Mets on Friday and Saturday, before the club departs on Thursday evening. "Well have a good idea before that what the roster is going to look like," said Gibbons. "Of course, well bring some extra guys with us anyway but well know in the next couple of days; with the catching, anyway." ' ' '
