New York opened a 4-1 lead on Goodrow's first goal since March 12. Jimmy Vesey fired a shot off Schmid's pad and glove and Goodrow knocked the puck out of the air and in at 7:23 of the third period.
The Devils pulled Vanecek again for an extra skater but came up empty this time around. Shesterkin stopped a tip try by Nathan Bastian with 2:22 left, and then had a stellar save on Nico Hischier's point-blank attempt on the follow, drawing chants of"I-gor! I-gor!" from the Madison Square Garden crowd.
Tarasenko got a pass from Kreider and fired a shot into the top right corner from between the circles with 1:35 remaining in the middle period. It was his third goal of the series.
