One of the most popular hockey players in our local NHL team, the Ottawa Senators, is Mike Fisher. Last year, he married Carrie Underwood, who as a country signer, is based in Nashville. With the Senators playing poorly this year and wanting to rebuild by unloading some heavy salaries, Fisher was traded to Nashville's NHL team, the Predators. Obviously, the move to Nashville was not a coincidence.Fisher wasn't just a hard-working player, he's also a community role model. I'm disappointed. All I can say is, "DAMN YOU CARRIE UNDERWOOD!". There, I feel better.

Kind of unusual to see a male, high profile sports start move in order to follow the career of his wife though!
FrauTech, interesting observation, although deep in the hearts of this city's citizens, we knew this would happen sooner or later. DAMN YOU CARRIE UNDERWOOD!
I might be wrong, but I think Underwood makes tons more money than Fisher. Also, excuse my ignorance, but does Canada do country music?
Underwood does earn more, although both earn multi-millions a year.
Canada has produced Shania Twain, K.D. Lang, Stompin' Tom Connors, and I think some of Neil Young's stuff is considered country. There may be more, but I'm not a country music fan, so I'm not familiar with stars in that genre. I've never heard of Underwood until she made a splash in the local media by marrying Fisher.
