Ilya Sorokin made 23 saves and Brock Nelson had a goal and an assist, leading the Isles to a victory against the Red Wings on Friday night.
"We did a good job breaking pucks out, getting up ice and getting on the forecheck," Palmieri said."That's kind of our bread and butter as a team, creating offense off that forecheck is how we are going to be successful and we were able to do that tonight."
Lee opened the scoring 4:44 into the second period, redirecting the puck past Hellberg for his 18th goal of the season. He also became the 16th player in franchise history to reach 400 points.
