The Washington Capitals brought back forward Anthony Beauvillier on a two-year, $5.5 million contract extension Thursday.

The Capitals acquired Beauvillier from the rival Pittsburgh Penguins for a second-round draft pick back on March 7. The Capitals were Beauvillier's sixth NHL team in three seasons; after spending the bulk of his career with the New York Islanders, he had short stints with the Vancouver Canucks, Chicago Blackhawks, Nashville Predators and Penguins.

Beauvillier played in 18 games for Washington and tallied two goals and three assists. He kept it going in the playoffs, recording two goals and four assists in 10 postseason games.

Beauvillier, 28, has amassed 271 points (131 goals, 140 assists) and 682 hits across 631 career games. He spent more than six seasons with the Islanders, who picked him in the first round (28th overall) of the 2015 draft.
