The Chicago Blackhawks have agreed to terms with restricted free agent defenseman Wyatt Kaiser.
The two-year contract extension announced Wednesday night has an average annual value of $1.7 million.
Kaiser, 23, recorded four goals and four assists in 57 games with the Blackhawks last season.
He has 18 points (four goals, 14 assists) in 98 career games since Chicago drafted him in the third round in 2020.
The Blackhawks, who have not been to the playoffs since 2019-20, took the ice Thursday for their first practice of training camp.
