TAMPA, Fla. - Coach Jon Cooper has agreed to a multi-year contract extension with the Tampa Bay Lightning after reaching the Stanley Cup final.

The defending Eastern Conference champions announced the deal Friday. Terms were not released.

"I’m extremely happy with the job he’s doing with our team,’’ said Lightning GM Steve Yzerman. "I like the way our team plays, I like the systems that we play, and I think he’s an outstanding coach. I’m looking forward to working with him for many more years.’’

Cooper has a .602 winning percentage since being hired in March 2013. He led the Lightning to the playoffs each of his first two full seasons behind the bench.

Tampa Bay won a franchise-record 50 games, set a club mark for points and led the NHL in scoring last season. The Lightning lost the Stanley Cup final to the Chicago Blackhawks in six games.

The team is off to a 12-11-3 start this season, sixth in the Atlantic Division.
