PITTSBURGH — Marc-Andre Fleury’s formula for success is pretty simple.

If the Pittsburgh Penguins goalie can see the puck, he figures there is a pretty good chance he is going to stop it.

His teammates appear to have gotten the message.

Fleury turned aside all 36 shots he faced in a 3-0 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday night, most of them relatively harmless forays from the point as his defense cleared space in front of the net to let Fleury go to work as he earned his 30th NHL shutout.

“Guys are blocking shots and not giving up good scoring chances,” Fleury said. “I think beginning of the season we had a little bit of a rough time but lately it’s been good.”

Chris Kunitz had two goals and an assist for Pittsburgh. Kris Letang scored his first goal of the season, and Evgeni Malkin became the fifth player in team history to register 400 assists.
