After new head coach
After graduating, Fletcher played two seasons of professional hockey but he found little success. He played exclusively at the ECHL level and ended up with 5 different teams in that span. He finally began to produce good numbers in his last stop with the Johnstown Chiefs, but it wasn't enough to keep him in the game and he retired in 1992.
Fletcher tried his hand at coaching next, serving as an assistant at several colleges over an 8-year span. In his final stop with Nebraska–Omaha, Fletcher also worked as an HVAC Comfort Advisor. He retired from coaching in 2002 and became a sales manager, working for several companies over the next 15 years. In 2018, Fletcher became a sales director for EyeGuide, a position he holds as of 2021.[4]
