1:41 p.m.: TSN reports that the Islanders have acquired defenseman Rob Davison from San Jose for a seventh round pick.
Analysis: With Andy Sutton, Brendan Witt and Chris Campoli all out with injuries, the Islanders needed some depth on the blueline, and that's what Davison will provide.
Davison, 27, has played just 15 games this year and has no points. He'll probably play only until Brendan Witt returns sometime in the next two weeks, at which point Ted Nolan will have to decide between Davison, Marc-Andre Bergeron and Bryan Berard for a lineup spot.
