UNIONDALE, N.Y. -- If five games is an indication, the Los Angeles Kings have found something special with their new-look No. 1 line.

With Ryan Smyth joining holdovers Anze Kopitar and Justin Williams, the Kings are off to a quick start. Since an opening-night loss to Phoenix, Los Angeles has won four straight -- the latest a 2-1 victory over the New York Islanders on Monday.

"It's a great feeling, but we don't want to ride our highs too high and our lows too low," said Smyth, acquired from Colorado in an offseason trade. "We want to stay pretty even keel and enjoy our time."

Kopitar and Smyth, who assisted on Kopitar's second-period, power-play goal that broke a scoreless tie, have at least one point in all five games. With Williams, the trio has combined for nine goals and 14 assists.

"We were put together right off the bat in training camp," Kopitar said. "Ryan is experienced enough and Justin is experienced enough that they know what it takes to get the chemistry going.
