Cirelli (undisclosed) will miss Thursday's game versus the Blue Jackets, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.
Cirelli got banged up Wednesday versus the Sabres, and he'll need to miss at least one game. His absence further depletes the Lightning's center depth, which is already thin due to Brayden Point's undisclosed injury. Yanni Gourde and Sam O'Reilly are likely to handle larger roles Thursday, while Gage Goncalves should be back in the lineup after a healthy scratch.
