Fisher Not Ready

It appears that Nashville Predators centre Mike Fisher is not ready for training camp, as an update of the Predators camp roster was released on Friday, listing him under 'injured.' Fisher had off-season shoulder surgery, which wasn't highlighted on the blog over the Summer, since there didn't seem to be much concern about him being ready by now, but obviously, that was mis-judged.

Fisher has not been cleared for contact in practices, but has been skating on his own, according to reports today.  His timetable is uncertain at the moment, which won't help his pool projections.  I would keep an eye on him, especially since he does have the potential to be pool worthy this season.

My projection of 40 points today will remain the same, but it will be on shaky ground.
