NEW YORK ( AP) — Brett Connolly’s second goal of the game during a third- period power play lifted Tampa Bay to its third straight win over New York, 6-3 at Madison Square Garden on Monday.

With Martin St. Louis off for slashing, Connolly scored past Henrik Lundqvist at 5:34 for his fourth of the season. Tyler Johnson gave the Lightning a two-goal lead 1:24 later with his second of the night, and Ondrej Palat added an empty-netter with 26.4 seconds left to give Tampa Bay its fourth consecutive victory.

Victor Hedman had three assists, and Ben Bishop made 32 saves to improve to 8-0 against the Rangers — including three wins in 15 days. He even had an assist on Connolly’s first.

Matt Carle added a goal for the Lightning, who outscored the Rangers 15-7 in the three games — including 11 goals at Madison Square Garden.

Kevin Hayes, Jesper Fast and St. Louis scored for the Rangers, who had won four of five. Lundqvist struggled and made only 15 saves.
