Randy Carlyle's job is apparently safe for now.

Anaheim Ducks general manager Bob Murray made it clear Saturday during his exit interview that his head coach will return next season, but said he's also looking to make changes to the team's style of play, according to Mike Coppinger of The Los Angeles Times.

Carlyle guided the Ducks to the playoffs for the second time in as many seasons since returning behind the Anaheim bench before the 2016-17 campaign, but his club was swept out of the first round by the San Jose Sharks on Wednesday night.

The Ducks made it to the Western Conference final in Carlyle's first season back in Orange County before losing to the Nashville Predators.

Carlyle is under contract through 2018-19, according to CapFriendly.

He also coached the team from 2006-07 to 2011-12.
