With a smokin hot bank account to boot!

I wonder if Fisher ends up in some sort of role with the Preds organization? Wouldn't surprise me if he did.

Yeah. I assume he and his wife are settled in Nashville so it makes sense.

Dude was a fun player to watch for a bunch of his career and was just awesome in the playoffs this past year. Great career for him and a true ambassador for making hockey in Nashville what it is today. So happy for that franchise, hard not to like them - easily my fav expansion team of the modern era (90's to current)

Always liked the way Fisher played and carried himself. Would have loved to have him on the Flames in his prime.

Retiring at 37 with millions of dollars and an international pop star wife. Not to shabby for a kid from Peterborough, Ontario.

Wish the Preds could have won this year.

My guess is the Underwoods will stay with the Preds in some capacity

It's really sad that when a player retires and his wife is good looking, a lot of comments are about his wife.

Shocked he could not get a one year deal from Nashville. Guy was their leader.

Pretty obvious that with Johansen's 8x8 contract, they have positioned him as their new leader

Fisher was a good professional and a good guy.

Ya, but Mike was an important dynamic for them. My guess is he had less interest in playing rather then the Preds having less interest in bringing him back.
