Well, what can I say? Chris Chelios signed with the AHL Chicago Wolves to bring leadership, and a role model influence, to the younger players there. The details are limited at this point, the due process is being followed, but you have to anticipate that if he’s found guilty, the Wolves will cut ties with the former NHL All-star. It would be a sad way to end an inspiring career.
