Cirelli's goal was a nice one, too. After Lightning [https://news.google.com/publications/CAAqBwgKMK-q0gsw7sXpAw/sections/CAQqEAgAKgcICjCvqtILMO7F6QMwruDfCA?hl=en-CA&gl=CA&ceid=CA%3Aen] defenseman Ryan McDonagh took a slapshot from the point, Cirelli beautifully tipped it past Bruins goaltender Jeremy Swayman. This goal was significant for Cirelli, as he now has set new career-highs with 21 goals and 46 points in 63 games this season. He reached his previous career-highs last season with Tampa Bay, posting 20 goals and 45 points in 79 games. Cirelli has taken his game to a new level this season, and hitting these new career-highs only demonstrates that further. He also has plenty more time to build on these totals, too, as the Lightning have 16 games remaining after their contest against the Bruins. In 494 career games over eight seasons with the Lightning, Cirelli has 117 goals, 278 points, and a plus-116 rating.
