The questions of how the Kings would align their forwards and which goalie would start were not answered at their morning skate Monday.
Those questions were answered, definitively, in the evening when the Kings played the Vancouver Canucks, who were no match for a fully engaged and aggressive Kings attack in front of Jonathan Quick in a 3-0 Kings victory at Staples Center.
Quick's 48th career shutout wasn't much in question as the Kings clicked with new lines and goals by Tyler Toffoli, Anze Kopitar and Tanner Pearson.
"It's good to get the win here, and in a good way too," Pearson said.
