Penguins 4, Islanders 2: A busy day for the Islanders didn't end with a win. They signed Mike Comrie to a contract extension, shipped off ~~resident thug~~ winger Chris Simon to the Minnesota Wild and also got rid of Marc-Andre Bergeron for a draft pick. Then they faced the depleted Penguins -- who made the biggest deal of the day in adding Marian Hossa -- and lost a bizarre game. They outshot the Pens 52-21, but it's not the shots that count.

Hurricanes 2, Devils 1 (OT): Of the local teams, the Devils had the quietest trading deadline day, adding only Bryce Salvador from the Blues. Then they played a bitter struggle with the Hurricanes that ended as an overtime loss. New Jersey still has points in its last five games, but its five-game winning streak is history. Brian Gionta had the lone goal for the Devils.

Magic 102, Nets 92: Vince Carter, Richard Jefferson and Marcus Williams all tried, but they couldn't outshine Orlando's Hedo Turkoglu. He went off for 17 points in the fourth quarter, the Nets allowed ~~Superman~~ Dwight Howard his 50th double-double, and that was that. New Jersey is now 2-2 since they traded Jason Kidd. They'll be hard pressed to maintain their .500 record the rest of the way.
