Daniel Carcillo (born January 28, 1985) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey left winger. He most recently played under contract to the Chicago Blackhawks of the NHL. His on-ice reputation as an enforcer has led to him being nicknamed “Car Bomb”. Carcillo won a Stanley Cup as a member of the 2013 and 2015 Blackhawks. After retiring from the NHL in 2015, Carcillo created a non-profit organization that assists former NHL players who are suffering from post-concussion syndrome and mental health issues.
