Detroit — One team the Red Wings haven't had much of an answer to this season are the New York Islanders.

That's two games now the Wings have faced the Islanders, and haven't been close in either, Thursday losing 5-0.

Completing a seven-game road trip with six victories, the Islanders (12-7-2) rolled to a 2-0 lead in the first periods and never trailed, sending the Wings (12-8-1) to their first regulation time loss in five games.

The Islanders defeated the Wings, 7-2, earlier in the season on Long Island, and this game was almost equally dominating.

Max Shabanov (two goals, two assists) Calum Ritchie, Mathew Barzal and Bo Horvat scored goals, while goaltender Ilya Sorokin stopped 25 shots for the shutout.
