The Islanders rebounded from a stunning finish to Game 2 to trim their deficit to 2-1 in the best-of-seven matchup, but it wasn't easy.
Tampa Bay wiped out a two-goal deficit in the first 13 minutes of the final period before Nelson, who also had an assist, beat goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy off a pass from Anthony Beauvillier. Jean-Gabriel Pageau added an empty-netter. Game 4 is Sunday.
Cal Clutterbuck and Adam Pelech scored to help New York build a 3-1 lead through two periods.
Tampa Bay cut into its deficit with Ondrej Palat's power-play goal at 2:32 of the third period and pulled even a little more than 10 minutes later when Tyler Johnson redirected Erik Cernak's shot from the right circle past Varlamov.
