Peter DeBoer reportedly doesn't need to worry about being in the final year of his contract as head coach of the San Jose Sharks.
"It's imminent that he'll sign a multi-year agreement with the San Jose Sharks, so he's not going anywhere," Sportsnet's Nick Kypreos said on "Saturday Headlines."
DeBoer is in his fourth campaign as the Sharks' bench boss, and he's on pace for his best regular-season finish with the team. San Jose entered Saturday's action sitting second in the Western Conference with a 43-20-8 record.
DeBoer guided the Sharks to the Stanley Cup Final in 2016 after stints with the New Jersey Devils and Florida Panthers. He also led the Devils to the final in 2012.
