Carrie Brings Luck To Mike Fisher And The Preds At Monday Night’s Blackhawks Matchup

As if Nashville Predators fans weren’t amped enough going into Game 3 of the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs against the Chicago Blackhawks here on home ice Monday night (April 17), Carrie Underwood made a surprise appearance to open the game with a rousing rendition of the National Anthem.

Underwood and her golden pipes must’ve brought some added luck to hubby Mike Fisher and the Preds, because they fought their way to a third win 3-2 in overtime, helping the team take their first 3-0 series lead in franchise history. Decked out in a Predators jersey, the proud superstar tweeted about the supercharged energy of the crowd before the puck even hit the ice, and was as overjoyed as anyone when they pulled out their third victory in the tight game.

No word on whether she’ll sing again at Thursday’s Game 4 against Chicago, but it’s likely she’ll be on hand for every minute of the pulse-pounding action.

Go Preds!
