ANAHEIM, Calif. - Free agent centre Todd Marchant is staying with the Anaheim Ducks after signing a two-year deal Tuesday that goes through the 2010-11 season.

Marchant, who turns 36 in August, had five goals and 13 assists in 72 games last season, his fourth with Anaheim. He had one goal and one assist while playing in all 14 of the Ducks' playoff games.

"His versatility on the ice and presence in the locker-room is something this club has deeply valued over the past four seasons," general manager Bob Murray said.
