Lightning's Anthony Cirelli: Hits 50-point plateau

Cirelli is heating up at the right time for fantasy managers locked in playoff battles. The Lightning forward has four goals and five points in his last four outings. Cirelli's goal Saturday was his 24th of the season and his 50th point. He might hit the 60-point plateau this campaign if he can carry momentum over the next few weeks. That would help fantasy managers make a late-season run.

Lightning's Anthony Cirelli: Snaps seven-game point drought
Cirelli scored two goals in a 6-2 win over the Bruins on Saturday.
Cirelli's first goal stood as the winner. He tipped a shot by Ryan McDonagh past Jeremy Swayman in the second period. His second went into an empty net. Cirelli came out of the 4 Nations Face-off on a three-game, three-assist streak, but since then, he went seven games without a point before Saturday. Still, Cirelli has already established new career highs in goals (22) and points (47) in just 64 games, and he has tied his career-best six shorthanded points, all while keeping his face-off percentage in the black (50.9 percent). Cirelli is a strong all-round player, but the depth of his position suppresses his fantasy value. There are a lot of centers putting up similar primary numbers.

Lightning's Anthony Cirelli: Gets goal but game has cooled
Cirelli scored a goal Thursday in a 3-0 win over the Kings.
He scored an empty-net shorthanded goal late in the third with David Rittich pulled on the power play. Cirelli's torrid start to the season has slowed -- he has seven points (five goals, two assists) in 15 games since the calendar flipped. Prior to that, Cirelli had 31 points in 34 games. He's still on pace to break his career mark of 45 points, which he set last season. And the goal -- his 19th -- puts him one from tying his best of 20, also set in 2023-24. There are lots of formats where Cirelli brings value, but if his pace has truly settled back into his regular career rate then his value drops in standard formats. There are too many offensive centers who will contribute more.

Cirelli scored a power-play goal on five shots in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Ducks.
Cirelli tied the game at 1-1 in the first period. The 27-year-old center has three goals and one assist over his last five contests as he continues to make a larger impact than ever on offense this season.

Cirelli figures to play on the second line at even strength while seeing big minutes in all situations.

Lightning's Anthony Cirelli: One of each Sunday
Cirelli scored an empty-net goal on two shots, dished an assist, added two PIM and went plus-3 in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Penguins.
Cirelli set up Brandon Hagel's game-tying goal in the second period before adding one of two empty-netters for the Lightning in the third. The 27-year-old Cirelli has three goals and an assist over seven contests in January. It's a bit of a slowdown for the center, but as a player with strong two-way skills, he'll sometimes sacrifice offense for defense. He's up to 17 goals, 36 points, 82 shots on net, 37 blocked shots and a plus-21 rating through 40 appearances. Cirelli remains on track to easily surpass his career high of 45 points from last season.

After putting up 27 points (12 goals, 15 assists) in his first 26 games, Cirelli has four goals and three assists in his last 12 games. He's still on pace for a career high in points, and he's showing his defensive chops, too. A Selke nomination may finally come Cirelli's way.
