Red Wings' Christian Fischer: Inks one-year deal
Fischer signed a one-year, $1.125 million contract with the Red Wings on Monday.
Although Fischer tested the unrestricted free agent market, he ended up returning to Detroit. He had five goals, 19 points, 36 PIM and 138 hits across 79 games with the Red Wings in 2023-24. He'll likely serve in a bottom-six capacity next season.

Red Wings' Christian Fischer: Discouraging finish in Motown
Fischer completed his debut campaign with the Red Wings, adding five goals, 14 assists and 138 hits through 79 games. He was neutral in the plus-minus category.
Despite a bottom-six role, Fischer has proven that he's capable of providing a decent amount of offense, but his production screeched to a halt at a time when the Red Wings were desperate in their attempts to clinch a playoff berth. Fischer was held without a point for the final 12 games, failing to provide ancillary scoring for the Original Six club that failed to qualify for the postseason. It could end up being a "one-and-done" stint for Fischer in the Motor City, as the physical winger is a pending unrestricted free agent.

Fischer supplied a goal and two assists in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Islanders.
Fischer has turned up the heat, adding three goals and two assists over the last four games. It's quite the random streak for a checking-line grinder, but the Red Wings will certainly take all they can get as they fight for their first playoff berth in eight years. Fischer has five goals, 14 assists and a plus-6 rating through 67 contests with this being his debut campaign for Detroit.

Red Wings' Christian Fischer: Adds goal to highlight reel
Fischer went five-hole on his lone tally in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Sabres.
Fischer tied the game at 5:35 in the second period as he slid to the ice but still beat Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen for a highlight-reel goal at the doorstep. This was just the third goal and 15th point of the season for Fischer, but it had huge implications for a Red Wings team that snapped a seven-game losing streak to help keep its playoff hopes alive. As of Saturday, the Original Six club has a 28.2 percent chance of securing a playoff berth.

Red Wings' Christian Fischer: Heating up with helpers
Fischer tacked on an assist in Monday's 4-3 overtime win over the Kraken.
Fischer has four assists in the last five games to easily qualify as a season-best stretch. With two goals, 11 assists and a plus-10 rating through 52 contests, the versatile forward seemingly is doing all that is asked of him as a penalty-killing specialist in the bottom six. Following his one-year, $1.125 million deal with the Wings, Fischer could hit the open market as an unrestricted free agent in the summer.

Fischer notched an assist and four shots on goal in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Canucks.
Fischer helped out on a J.T. Compher tally in the second period. This was Fischer's third straight game with an assist after he had just one helper in all of January. The 26-year-old is at 12 points, 60 shots on net, 69 hits, 28 PIM and a plus-9 rating through 50 appearances. While he's showing more on offense, he's still limited to a bottom-six role that will make maintaining his scoring rate difficult.

Red Wings' Christian Fischer: Questionable for upcoming tilt
Fischer (upper body) is questionable to suit up in Saturday's home game against the Bruins, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
Fischer sustained the injury Thursday, which ended up as a 2-0 loss to the Panthers. The Red Wings might recall a forward from AHL Grand Rapids or dress an extra defenseman, but either way, Fischer is off the radar in fantasy leagues given that he's on the fourth line with a single assist representing his point total through 11 contests.
