The recently introduced idea of identifying the most important higher-than-doubly excited determinants in the ground-state coupled-cluster (CC) calculations through stochastic configuration interaction Quantum Monte Carlo propagations [J.E. Deustua, J. Shen, and P. Piecuch, Phys. Rev. Lett. 119, 223003 (2017)] is extended to excited electronic states via the equation-of-motion (EOM) CC methodology. The advantages of the new method are illustrated by calculations aimed at recovering the ground- and excited-state energies of the CH+ molecule at the equilibrium and stretched geometries resulting from the EOMCC calculations with a full treatment of singles, doubles, and triples.
