The Arizona Coyotes will reportedly name John Chayka the next general manager of the franchise on Thursday.
Craig Custance was the first to report that the team would be naming the 26-year-old assistant GM to the head job after the ouster of former GM Don Maloney in April.
Custance also reported that “details of a restructured front office will also be released, expect an expanded role in roster decisions for Dave Tippett.”
Craig Morgan confirmed the report shortly afterward:
John Chayka will be named the new GM of the Coyotes at a press conference on Thursday.
