The Detroit Red Wings conclude a 5 game road stretch with a huge loss as they were dominated by the New York Islanders in a 6-0 blowout in New York.
The Red Wings played terribly tonight and, starting at the opening face-off, never stood a chance. What made the difference in tonight’s game was the crushing fore-check of the Islanders. Detroit’s defense never was given the space to set up plays and the Islanders intercepted almost every attempted pass the Wings made. The one time the Islanders did give a Wings’ defenseman room to make a play, he still gave the puck over which led to the Islanders third goal. The Wings will be looking to avenge this loss on Thursday.
In Play! Man of the Game: Rob Schremp. Schremp struggled with goal scoring early in his career, but tonight he notched two, the second of which came gift wrapped from Brad Stuart.
