In extra time, Chytil scored his sixth goal of the season.

Trailing 3-1 in the second period, Rangers tied the game with two goals in seven seconds after Shesterkin blocked a Hughes penalty shot with 7:10 remaining. The Devils forward was snagged from behind by defender Braden Schneider during a breakaway.

Kakko then caused a frenzy at Madison Square Garden by collecting his sixth goal of the season immediately after the face-off following Trochek’s net.
