- Knicks 111 Nets 105: Something’s different with the Knicks. Not only did they win their third-straight game (a season high) Wednesday, but they did it with a comeback. New Jersey jumped out to a 15-point lead at the end of the first quarter and the Knicks responded. For some reason, they didn’t pack it in like they have on so many other nights.
Jamal Crawford led the way with 35 points and eight assists, including a huge three-pointer when the game was tied at 102. Zach Randolph had 24 points and 11 rebounds Vince Carter had 26 and Richard Jefferson 22 in the loss.
- Rangers 2 Buffalo 1: New York is a completely different team with Sean Avery in the lineup and figuring out how to keep him in it for the rest of a season and beyond better become a top priority. Avery was all over the ice, getting big hits and agitating the Sabres in the Rangers win.
- Islanders 3 Devils 1: No team will appreciate the upcoming schedule realignment more than the Devils. After five games this year against the Islanders, the Devils are still looking for a win. Rick DiPietro made 37 saves
