The Florida Panthers are rewarding their staff for a solid 2015.

Just a few hours after extending general manager Dale Tallon, the Panthers are set to ink head coach Gerard Gallant to a contract extension through 2019, George Richards of the Miami Herald reports.

It is expected that the deal will be announced on Saturday.

The Panthers have won seven games in a row, and sit just a point back of the Montreal Canadiens in the Atlantic Division with three games in hand.
