Stoll's SO Goal Lifts Kings Over Blue Jackets

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Jarret Stoll had the only goal in the shootout, leading Los Angeles past the Columbus Blue Jackets 4-3 on Wednesday night and extending the Kings' point streak to 10 games.

The Kings' 8-0-2 spurt in their best run in 31 years. Los Angeles can match the franchise record when it plays the eighth of a 10-game road trip at the New York Rangers on Thursday.

Los Angeles also has points in eight straight road games (6-0-2) for its top surge since 1984.

The Blue Jackets forced overtime on Kris Russell's goal with 1:23 left in regulation.

Andrei Loktionov had a goal and an assist, and Justin Williams and Drew Doughty also scored for the Kings. Jonathan Quick had 21 saves through overtime and stopped all three shots in the shootout.
