The Nashville Predators lineup has been bolstered by the team’s acquisition of Mike Fisher today, but how exactly will the 11-year NHL veteran help the club as they try to win a playoff round (or four) for the first time in their history?
Mike Fisher Trade Gives Nashville Predators Boost At Center Position
The big question coming out of today’s trade for Mike Fisher, of course, is where he fits into the Nashville Predators lineup. Some people may look at his resume (50-point production, reputation for two-way play) and see another David Legwand, wondering where the big upgrade is here, but the fact is that the impact comes from which player Fisher replaces on the roster, not which guys he’ll play with. Now, Fisher’s addition allows the Preds to ice three lines with some offensive punch to them once again, which was the plan until Matthew Lombardi got hurt in Game Two.
Fisher will make his Nashville debut on Saturday night against the Colorado Avalanche.
