I hate to speculate but possibly some disagreements with the higher ups when it came to inserting Dumais back in the lineup during the playoffs? I know that was a hot debate online so maybe it was in the Moosehead offices as well.
Could this be to pursue a coaching opportunity closer to home? Gatineau perhaps? I can't imagine the Mooseheads would be big fans of that and taking out the personal side of it it's going in the wrong direction but we can't discount the importance of family as opposed to winning.

What are they competing with the Eagles to see who can have the most head coaches?

Could he have grown close to ownership and that change kind of led to this? I would have guessed Russell to leave if anyone so like most find this surprising due to the timing as most teams want this stuff figured out in terms of who is returning before the Q draft.
So much can happen to make someone just need to be closer to home, too. The fallout from this will be interesting.

Do they promote from within again and give MacKenzie the keys?

Sounds like Eric Veilleux is available. That'd be something.
Hope everything is ok with Favreau and his family first of all. If he's moving closer to home like Ducharme, I can't really blame him. We're losing a pretty good up and coming coach though.

I wonder if Steve Hartley is a consideration? It's been almost 10 years since he's been a young coach in the organization, I know he didn't have much success with the Volts last year, but, it's an option. As coaches go he's still young.
That said, I'm sure most here would prefer someone who isn't a re-tread. Halifax generally has the resources to be creative, but with Bobby Smith gone there's a different set of connections so... we'll see.

AJ MacLean was just let go from the Marlies and might like the opportunity to try head coaching. Just throwing a name out there.

I think with two English assistants, they will be looking for a french coach.

Knowing Favreau, he is absolutely levelling up! He’s brilliant and most likely accepted a position in the AHL or NHL! The man is going big places and his time is now! If that was the case I think it might have said that in the release - similar to when Stephan Julian stepped down from the Phoenix a few days ago
