Yahoo! Sports reports that the Nashville Predators traded their first-round pick in the 2011 Entry Draft and a conditional pick in the 2012 Draft for Mike today.
The condition pick is Nashville's third-round selection if the Predators win one round in the 2011 Stanley Cup Playoffs, and turns into a second-rounder in 2012 if the team wins two-or-more rounds.
"We were seeking a top-six forward and Mike Fisher was the player we set our sights on," David Poile, Nashville Predators President of Hockey Operations/General Manager said in a press release. "He plays playoff-style hockey all season long. He plays on the power play, kills penalties, is strong on draws and can match up against any opposing line."

I envision myself living there long after I have kids and long after I’m done singing and all that stuff, just because it’s a great place to live … You can work, you can write, you can record, you can shoot videos and all that stuff, but you can also find land and spread out a bit.”
