Islanders 2 Red wings o


Last night in Detroit Joey MacDonald His first career shut out stoping all 42 shots. Returning last night from injury Joey Mac continues to make showing off his skills between the pipes including a glove save robing Mikael Samuelsson of what looked like a sure goal. MacDonald and former Islander Chris Osgood kept the game scoreless untill 8:41 when Frans Nielsen got one passed Osgood giveing the Isles a shorthanded 1-0 lead. Later in the second period Tim Jackmen took a rap around shot that was kicked away right to Josh Bailey who put home to give the Isles a 2 zip lead. The Islander spent four minutes each period in the penelty box but the Isles played good defense throught steping up big when needed. When asked about the shut out MacDonald replied"It's an unbelievable feeling to get my first shutout in the NHL against my former team."
