Lightning's Anthony Cirelli: Returns with three-point effort
Cirelli scored a power-play goal on two shots and added two assists in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Flames.
While the Lightning's top line and first power-play unit did most of the damage, Cirelli was able to chip in with a big game from the second line as well. The 27-year-old returned from a one-game absence due to an upper-body injury and logged 15:32 of ice time. That's less than usual for the center, but it was likely a product of the lopsided score, though his two assists came in the third period. Cirelli is now at 12 goals, 15 helpers, 55 shots on net and a plus-15 rating through 26 appearances this season.

Cirelli notched a goal Tuesday in a 3-2 overtime win over Pittsburgh.
His goal forced overtime. Cirelli is riding a three-game goal streak (three goals, four points), and he has 17 points, including 12 assists, in 17 games this season. Brayden Point (lower body) returned to action Tuesday, so Cirelli slid off the top line and into the two-hole with Brandon Hagel and Nick Paul.
