The Arizona Coyotes and head coach Rick Tocchet agreed to a mutual parting of ways, the club announced on Sunday, ending the former Coyotes player's four-year tenure at the helm.
The Coyotes will begin their search for a new head coach immediately.
Tocchet, whose contract is to expire at the end of June, was named the Coyotes head coach on July 11, 2017. In four seasons with the club, he led the Coyotes to a record of 125-131-34 in 290 games.
Last season, Tocchet led the Coyotes to the playoffs for the first time since 2012.
