I think Canada 02's post makes sense, too — Tocchet was a Chayka hire. I'd imagine Bill Armstrong will want to get his own guy.
I could see the new hire being Mike Van Ryn, who was previously the head coach of the Coyotes' AHL affiliate in Tucson and who has been an assistant coach for the St. Louis Blues (Armstrong's former team) since 2017.
