Vancouver Canucks forward Drew O'Connor agreed to a two-year, $5 million contract extension on Tuesday.

O'Connor, 26, has recorded two goals in four games with the Canucks since being acquired from the Pittsburgh Penguins on Feb. 1.

"Drew has really made a good first impression since joining our team from Pittsburgh at the beginning of the month," Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin said. "We like his size, speed and ability to get in on the forecheck and hound pucks. Our staff also feel confident that they can help Drew take his game to another level and we are excited to see what the future holds for him with the Vancouver Canucks."

Vancouver traded defenseman Vincent Desharnais and forward Danton Heinen to the Penguins in exchange for O'Connor, defenseman Marcus Pettersson, forward prospect Melvin Fernstrom and a protected 2025 first-round draft pick.

O'Connor has 18 points (eight goals, 10 assists) in 57 games with the Penguins and Canucks this season. He has 68 career points (32 goals, 36 assists) in 214 games since making his NHL debut with Pittsburgh in January 2021.
