Mike Fisher bitten by chipmunk while saving Carrie Underwood

Nashville Predators center Mike Fisher is a regular knight in shining armor. Over the weekend, an innocent looking chipmunk somehow snuck its way into the home of Fisher and his wife Carrie Underwood. Fisher sprung into action to rescue his beautiful wife, and he even lost a little blood along the way.

Fisher was able to snatch up the chipmunk in impressive fashion, but not before it bit him on the hand. Wait, chipmunks bite? And they do damage? Apparently so, as the following photo would seem to indicate:

Underwood, who loves to give Fisher a hard time and razzed him last year about holding her purse while she went up to collect an award, made “Mikey” show everyone his hand after the tussle.

Between holding the purse, getting bit by a chipmunk and driving with a dog on his lap, Fisher is not exactly giving off the hockey player vibe most of us are accustomed to.
