Ottawa Senators center Mike Fisher has inked Carrie Underwood (who is the newsroom's favorite American Idol based on a quick poll) to a lifetime contract as evidenced by Underwood's diamond engagement ring --  bling that was on display during the Senators game against the Boston Bruins last night.

"It's true. We're both obviously excited and very happy," Fisher, 29, said when asked about the engagement. "I'm not sure exactly when (the wedding will take place)."

The couple have been seen canoodling for over a year and were hooked up by friends after one of her concerts in Toronto.
