NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Nashville Predators see forward Mike Fisher as the perfect fit as the seventh captain in franchise history, replacing Shea Weber who was traded to Montreal in July for P.K. Subban in a stunning move.General manager David Poile announced Thursday they have named Fisher as their new captain. Fisher, 36, is going into the final year on his current contract, but Poile made it clear that wont be an issue.He can play here as long as he wants, Poile said at a news conference. I dont view this as a one-year captaincy. Well take whatever we can get from Mike both on and off the ice.Fisher was a full alternate captain the past four seasons and the Predators nominee for the King Clancy Award four of the past five seasons for his leadership. He won the NHL Foundation Award in 2012 and helped Ottawa reach the Stanley Cup final in 2007.Fisher said being named the Predators captain ranks among the top highlights of his career.Its an honor to be given the captaincy of this team, of this city that I love being a part of, Fisher said. Hopefully, were going to top that this year with the Cup. Thats the plan.The 6-foot-1 center played his 1,000th career NHL game March 3, the 300th player in league history to reach that mark. He tied for the team lead with five goals during the playoffs last spring. He had a point in each of Nashvilles first five games against San Jose in the second round, and he also scored the game-winning goal in triple overtime of Game 4 against the Sharks.Fisher won a career-high 53.4 percent of his faceoffs last season.Poile said he and coach Peter Laviolette had been discussing candidates to become captain after the trade that sent Weber to Montreal for Subban. The general manager said Fisher met each of the criteria they wanted.Mike Fisher is a great ambassador for this franchise, Poile said.The Predators, who lost to San Jose in seven games, report for training camp Sept. 22.

BOSTON -- Charlie Coyle, Chris Stewart and the Minnesota Wild just needed time to capitalize against Bostons emergency goalie tandem.Coyle and Stewart scored 12 seconds apart during a four-goal second period, Devan Dubnyk made 27 saves and the Wild beat the Bruins 5-0 on Tuesday night.That first period was ugly. We thought it was going to be a long night if we kept playing like that, said Ryan Suter, who also scored. We knew that we had more and we finally started to play the way we needed to play.Goals by Coyle and Stewart rattled the short-handed Bruins, who entered the game missing Tuukka Rask (lower body) and Anton Khudobin (right arm/wrist).Malcolm Subban made his second career start but was pulled after allowing three goals on 16 shots. He was replaced by Zane McIntyre, who made his NHL debut just hours after being called up from AHL Providence.Dubnyk got his 20th career shutout and the first for the Wild this season.Thats what were looking for on the road, Dubnyk said. We played hard. We got scoring chances. We outscored them.

We got one and then we kept building on to that.Suter scored by one-timing a crossing pass from Matt Dumba just 5 seconds after Boston defenseman Adam McQuaid was called for cross checking.Fans mocked Subbans struggles by cheering McIntyre after a routine stop, but there was little else to cheer on the night. Zucker took a pass from Suter with 3:21 left in the second to give the Wild a 4-0 lead after two.You look at what you could have done and you cant dwell over it, Subban said. Ive got to keep working through it. Thats all you can really do.Game notes Subbans only previous NHL experience was a start at St. Louis on Feb. 20, 2015, when he was pu
