From TSN:
It may not be in Ottawa, but it appears Peter DeBoer will be coaching somewhere in the NHL next season.
On the same day Craig Hartsburg was named the head coach of the Senators, the Kitchener Rangers’ website says their head coach will be leaving the organization to accept a head coaching position in the National Hockey League, adding that details would not be released until Monday.

We have not yet found out where DeBoer will land. The Kings seem like a good fit.
UPDATE: DeBoer has been hired by the Panthers.

DeBoer is an interesting choice for the Panthers. By the time the season begins, the Panthers will probably be even younger than they are now. DeBoer is a good hire for a young team that needs to grow. Additionally, he will most likely benefit from working for a man in Jacques Martin who is extremely patient. That should allow DeBoer to see things through.
