If one were to say that Tampa Bay Lightning Head Coach Jon Cooper has been successful thus far in his leadership of the Tampa Bay Lightning, one might just be uttering the understatement of the year. It stands to reason Cooper should be rewarded for his efforts, which he was this afternoon.
The Tampa Bay Lightning has announced they have come to terms with Tampa Bay Lightning Head Coach Jon Cooper on a multi-year contract extension. As we mentioned earlier today, Tampa Bay Times Staff Writer Joe Smith is reporting Cooper’s deal is a two-year extension which would see Cooper remain with the Tampa Bay Lightning until the conclusion of the 2017-18 season.
