The Montreal Canadiens have signed restricted free-agent Phillip Danault to a two-year extension, the team announced Tuesday.
Danault was acquired this past season as part of the trade that saw Dale Weise and Tomas Fleischmann dealt to the Chicago Blackhawks.
Danault played 51 games split between the Canadiens and Blackhawks, and tallied a combined four goals and 10 points.
