Dale Tallon will once again be tasked with getting the Florida Panthers back on track.

Moved upstairs last January in a front-office shakeup, TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger reports that Tallon is resuming control of the team's management duties and hockey operations.

Tallon was hired as the team's GM in May of 2010 and served in that capacity until the January 1, 2016 promotion, which was accompanied by a three-year extension. In the restructuring, Tom Rowe - then the head coach of the Panthers' American Hockey League-affiliate Portland Pirates - became the team's associate general manager. Rowe became the Panthers' head coach on November 27 upon the firing of Gerard Gallant. Gallant was in his third season as Panthers' bench boss, guiding the team to a first-place finish in the Atlantic Division a season ago.

Under Rowe, the Panthers have gone 2-3-3 in eight games.

Dreger does not foresee a complete overhaul with Tallon steering the ship once again, but changes could be forthcoming in the New Year.

The Panthers (13-13-4) sit fifth in the Atlantic. The team is currently four points adrift of a playoff spot. The Panthers are next in action on Thursday night when they visit the Winnipeg Jets.
