celly
Pocket communication device
Celly is informal for cellmate—someone who shares a prison cell with you: My celly snores all night.
In hockey slang, celly is short for celebration, specifically the exuberant display after scoring a goal: He's got the best celly in the league.
Context usually makes clear which sense is meant.
