The Flyers didn't end up making any truly blockbuster moves on deadline day. Their most notable was sending Bobby Brink to the Minnesota Wild.

While nothing major came their way, a division rival went full steam ahead. The New York Islanders, who currently hold the third spot in the division, swung a rather large deal with the St. Louis Blues.
