Dave Tippett signs two-year extension

From the Dallas Morning News:

The Dallas Stars on Monday announced that coach Dave Tippett has been signed to a two-year contract extension through the 2010-11 season.

Tippett was signed to a one-year extension through the 2008-09 season last December.

Word had it that this contract was almost done back in May. So obviously these two sides were just working out minor details. Tippett definitely proved himself to be a playoff capable coach last season and his re-signing is a good move by the Stars franchise.
