Defenseman Connor Carrick scored with 4:10 left to break a tie and the New Jersey Devils beat the New York Rangers 4-2 on Monday night at Prudential Center to avoid being swept in their season series by their longtime rivals.

Myles Wood and Travis Zajac also scored in the Devils’ regular-season home finale. Joey Anderson added an empty-net goal to ice the game and MacKenzie Blackwood made 32 saves.

Brett Howden and Filip Chytil scored for the Rangers, who won the first three meetings.
