COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The Columbus Blue Jackets are set to hire Manitoba' Scott Arniel as head coach Tuesday, a source told ESPN.com's Pierre LeBrun.

The Blue Jackets scheduled a press conference for Tuesday to announce their new coach, but declined comment when asked by The Associated Press about the hiring on Monday night.

The Arniel hire comes after Hamilton Bulldogs coach Guy Boucher declined the position.

They'll probably have a better powerplay than we will...

That's no big feat.

No, but I'm saying it b/c our powerplay went to **** when Arniel left and was no longer coordinating it.

I knew why you said, I would love to have him back behind the Sabres bench.

Personally, I was glad to see Dineen passed over for the job.
