The Panthers (10-6-3) fired DeBoer after he failed to guide them to the playoffs in three seasons. Their 72 points in his final season in 2010-11 were the Eastern Conference's fewest.
"For a lot of reasons, I'd like to win that one," said DeBoer about Monday's matchup. "It will be interesting. I haven't been back to a place I've been fired before, so it will be a first-time experience for me. Listen, I had three great years there."
