Islanders-Red Wings resume after 36-minute delay

DETROIT (AP) - The game between the New York Islanders and Detroit Red Wings on Saturday has resumed after a 36-minute delay caused when a Zamboni damaged the ice.

The teams will swap ends of the ice midway through the third period so both teams have to defend on the damaged section.

Detroit leads 4-0 after two periods.
