Final Score: Columbus 0 - Los Angeles 6

Los Angeles, CA (Sports Network) - Jonathan Quick needed to stop just 11 shots for his third shutout of the season and Los Angeles scored four first-period goals on its way to a 6-0 clobbering of Columbus.

Alexander Frolov had a goal and three assists while Michal Handzus and Fredrik Modin each added a goal and an assist for the Kings, who snapped a two-game losing streak.

Steve Mason was tagged for four goals on 13 shots and did not survive the first period for the Blue Jackets, who have dropped their past five games. Mathieu Garon stopped 20-of-22 shots the rest of the way.

It's been a difficult sophomore campaign for Mason, who won the Calder Trophy as the league's top rookie last season. Coming into Monday's contest, he had a 3.08 goals against average and .899 save percentage, posting a 16-20-7 record.

"That was embarrassing," LA's R.J. Umberger said of the loss. "We didn't play smart. We are our own worst enemies out there."

Los Angeles dominated this game start to finish and scored the only goal it needed 5:49 in, as Wayne Simmonds caught up to the puck in the neutral zone, skated down to the right circle and blasted a shot under the glove of Mason.

Drew Doughty made it a 2-0 game with 6:36 left in the first on a one-timer from the slot, and Handzus scored 1:14 later when he jammed home his own rebound from the left side on the power play.

Frolov made it a 4-0 game with a power-play goal thanks to a one- timer from the top of the left circle.

The Kings took a 5-0 lead 4:20 into the second with their third power-play goal of the game when Modin skated into the slot and lifted a backhand past Garon.

It was 6-0 halfway through the second as Brad Richardson slammed home a rebound off a Jarrett Stoll shot that was sitting in the crease.

Columbus, which managed just three shots in the first period, had two in the second and six in the third.

"Mentally it can be a bit of a battle to stay focused a full 60 minutes, but the team played great the whole game," Quick said. "It was real easy for me. We had some big goals, and it was just a great game."
