Ryan Strome had two goals and one assist as the New York Islanders defeated the New Jersey Devils 6-4 on Sunday.
The Islanders (27-21-10, 64 points) extended their home point streak to 11 games (9-0-2) with the win.
The Islanders have won six consecutive home games against the Devils (25-24-10, 60 points) dating to March 29, 2014 (NJD: 0-4-2).
Casey Cizikas, Andrew Ladd, John Tavares and Jason Chimera also scored for the Islanders.
Jean-Francois Berube made 26 saves for New York (27-21-10), which salvaged a home-and-home series split following a 3-2 loss at the Devils on Saturday.
"I thought we played a hard game, were tough to play against and we went to the front of the net," Strome said. "In our loss [Saturday], we didn't have enough bodies in front. [Cory Schneider] saw the shots easily; we got in front and it paid off tonight."
Taylor Hall had a goal and two assists, Miles Wood, Kyle Palmieri and Joseph Blandisi scored, and Keith Kinkaid made 26 saves for New Jersey.
Kinkaid made his first start since a 5-2 loss against the Washington Capitals on Jan. 26.
