Again, a return to Little Caesars Arena proved to be the cure the Red Wings needed to right all their ills.
Returning home with a three-game losing streak — including two lackluster losses in St. Louis and Colorado — the Wings looked like a different team Tuesday while defeating the New York Islanders, 2-1.
The Wings played a much better defensive game than was evident on the road, and looked like a confident team while back on home ice.
"We played a real good game, a real good hockey game," coach Jeff Blashill said.
