  • Devils 5 Washington 2: New Jersey didn’t come to play, surrendering two goals in the first five minutes, but they stormed back to clinch their eight-straight win. Five different players scored while Martin Brodeur stopped the final 27 shots he faced.
  • Rangers 2 Ottawa 1 (Shootout): It took seven rounds, but PA Parenteau gave the Rangers the win. New York came back from a 1-0 deficit, thanks to a goal by Vinny Prospal and they killed a penalty in overtime to force the shootout. Henrik Lundqvist made 35 saves.
  • Miami 81 Nets 80: They came very close to getting a win, but Dwyane Wade’s three-pointer with a tenth of a second left kept New Jersey winless. Miami had tied the game on a three-pointer by Quentin Richardson, but Brook Lopez put the Nets up by two with a tip in with only four seconds remaining. But Wade recovered from almost turning the ball over to drill his shot and win the game for Miami.
  • Florida 5 Islanders 4 (Shootout): The Islanders blew a 2-0 lead, but rallied back from a 4-2 deficit to earn a point. Kyle Okposo scored his fifth goal of the season on a feed from John Tavares to tie it, but the Panthers took it in the shootout.
