In the Coyotes training camp for the 2007/08 season , Patrick Fischer was told that he was no longer needed because he was too good for the third or fourth row, but there was no space available in the first two attack formations. So they wanted to send him to the farm team in San Antonio. With a contract offer from SKA St. Petersburg for around CHF 1 million , he initially returned to Zug and moved to Petersburg at the beginning of November 2007.

In December 2007 he was released from the SKA as a surplus foreigner and switched back to EV Zug. In spring 2009 Fischer announced his retirement from top-class sport. He was immortalized on the Wall of Fame of EV Zug , his shirt number 21 is no longer given by the EVZ.

In the same calendar year, he received a promotion and, after Philippe Bozon's dismissal, was given the post of assistant coach at HC Lugano. Initially, he assisted under interim coach Mike McNamara until the end of the 2010/11 season , before he got the job as head coach of the elite juniors again. Fischer was subsequently confirmed in the same position under head coach Barry Smith for the 2011/12 season . From the 2013/2014 season to October 2015, Fischer was the head coach of HC Lugano.
