Coach John Stevens clarified that Gaborik's previously undisclosed ailment is in fact a chronic knee injury, Jon Rosen of LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Steven's went on to note that Gaborik would not be joining the team for its exhibition outing in China -- instead focusing on his recovery. The veteran remains without a timeline to return to action, which puts his availability for Opening Night against Philadelphia into doubt.

Gaborik (undisclosed) will require further tests Tuesday and remains without a timeline to return, Curtis Zupke of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gaborik was already facing the possibility of being forced into a third-line role following the arrival of Michael Cammalleri, but this latest news puts his availability for Opening Night against the Flyers into doubt. The 35-year-old has played in less than 60 games in two consecutive season -- which has resulted in him tallying a paltry 43 points over that stretch. If they haven't already, fantasy owners may want to consider jumping ship, rather than clinging to hope that the winger will go through a career resurgence.

Gaborik (undisclosed) is still expected to miss the start of training camp, though he is making progress, Jon Rosen of LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

The oft-injured scoring vet reportedly had a procedure done this offseason that involved repairing a tendon and ligament, but even though he avoided surgery and is said to be doing well, Kings GM Rob Blake added in a State of the Franchise address that Gaborik "still has some difficulty with some of the lifts and the strength." A mid-80s point packer in his heyday with the Rangers, it's difficult to recommend the Czech in anything but the deepest fantasy formats since he's played a combined 110 games over the last two seasons.

Gaborik will be eligible for Vegas to pick up in the upcoming expansion draft, John Hoven of Sirius XM reports.

EDGE Analysis

If you rake in a $4.875 million salary, you're usually expected to also rack up more than 21 points in 56 games. Of course, injuries have been a problem for the 35-year-old, but this decision was at the very least, an easy one. Vegas doesn't have many other talented, reasonably-priced options from Los Angeles, so there is a high possibility of a deal happening before the draft takes place.

Gaborik underwent a procedure that will hold him out through at least part of training camp, Helene Elliott of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran winger hasn't supplied much in either of his last two seasons for the Kings, playing no more than 56 games over that span. His 2017-18 campaign won't start on a good note, but general manager Rob Blake indicated Monday that the team isn't considering buying Gaborik's contract out. He reportedly played hurt during 2016-17 and will be given an opportunity to get back on track next season. Considering the deal lasts for another four seasons, the Kings certainly hope he can turn things around despite entering next season at 35 years of age.

Gaborik recorded two assists during Wednesday's win over Calgary, after he was a healthy scratch against Edmonton on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Don't overreact to the multi-point showing, as Gaborik has just 22 goals and 43 points through 106 games over the past two seasons. The 35-year-old veteran doesn't move the offensive needle like he did in his prime, and with only eight points -- four goals -- over his past 23 games, you'll want to aim higher in the majority of fantasy settings.

Gaborik is a candidate to be a healthy scratch Tuesday against the Oilers, Jon Rosen of LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gaborik, who has been a healthy scratch twice this season, checks in with 10 goals and 19 points in 51 games to date, numbers that reflect the fact that the 35-year-old's days as a high-end goal-scorer are behind him.

Gaborik scored a goal and chipped in an assist in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over Nashville.

EDGE Analysis

Both points came on the power play, giving the 25-year-old a pair of two-point games with three goose eggs in between. Gaborik only has 17 points in 43 contests this season, so he's a tough sell in most formats, but it might be worth watching if his assignment next to Anze Kopitar and Jarome Iginla on the team's top line continues to bear fantasy fruit.

Gaborik scored a goal and added an assist during Monday's overtime loss to Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

Following a nine-game point drought, Gaborik was a healthy scratch against Anaheim on Saturday. While it's certainly a positive to see him respond with his first multi-point game of the year, it also has to be frustrating for fantasy owners and the organization. Between injuries and inconsistent production, Gaborik should be left to the waiver wire in the majority of seasonal leagues. He's still an intriguing flier in daily contests because of his upside, though.

Gaborik was listed as a healthy scratch for Saturday's game against the Ducks, LA Kings Insider reports.

EDGE Analysis

The team is reportedly looking to deal the veteran before the trade deadline. However, Gaborik is 35 years old and has four years left on his contract so it might not be terribly easy to move him. He is scoreless over his past nine games and he has just 13 points on the season. At this point he is only worth a look in deeper fantasy pools until he starts to show some consistency. Perhaps a change of scenery will get him back on track.
