Coyotes re-sign Carcillo for two more years

 
Daniel Carcillo, who led the NHL in penalty minutes as a rookie last season, was re-signed to a two-year contract Tuesday by the Phoenix Coyotes. Carcillo, a 23-year-old left winger, had 13 goals, 11 assists and 324 penalty minutes in 57 games. He became the first rookie in NHL history to have more than 300 penalty minutes and 15 points in one season. Carcillo, a third-round draft pick of Pittsburgh in 2003, was acquired from the Penguins in February 2007. [link]
