NEW YORK -- The Devils finally got the 60-minute effort they wanted.
Following one miscue on an early breakaway goal, the Devils kept a lethal New York Islanders offense in check before rattling off four straight goals in a 4-1 win on Tuesday at the Barclays Center, ending a 0-3-3 stretch.
Here's how the Devils got their first win of the 2018 calendar year, including a big game from Damon Severson, a needed special teams performance and a red-hot streak extended for Taylor Hall.
Defenseman Damon Severson struck for two goals for the second time in his career, giving the Devils a 2-1 lead in the second period before adding to it 1:26 later for a 3-1 advantage.
