Carrie Underwood and Hockey Husband Staying in Nashville

The wives of professional athletes are used to holding their breath during the off-season, wondering if their husband is going to get traded to another team which, of course, would mean moving to another city.  Carrie Underwood, however, has nothing to worry about.

Her Canadian hubby, Mike Fisher, has been offered a contract extension by his current team, the Nashville Predators, which is perfect since it will allow his famous wife to stay in the country music hub. 

The renewal was announced by Predators GM, David Poile. Fisher was given $8.4 million for two seasons which is great for the 32-year-old center. 

It was no big surprise when Fisher was acquired by the Preds back in February 2011 from the Ottawa Senators.  He has done quite well too, earning 24 goals and 51 points in his first full season with the team.

He seems happy about the extension, explaining that he loves being with team and in the city. 

In his NHL career, Fisher has 196 goals and 215 assists in 774 games.
