CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Blackhawks have agreed to a two-year contract extension with forward Daniel Carcillo.

A third-round draft pick in 2003, Carcillo has 84 points (38G, 46A) and 1,068 penalty minutes in 310 regular-season games with Phoenix (2006-09), Philadelphia (2009-11) and the Blackhawks.

The King City, Ontario, native also has five goals, six assists and 69 penalty minutes in 33 playoff games.
