After having played almost a decade each for Montreal, Chicago and Detroit, Chris Chelios, aged 47, is in the free agent market looking for an NHL team that could use a third-line defenseman who has seen everything. He sure has. Most NHLers his age are not just retired but long retired. Or maybe captaining a minor league farm team, as a name to draw fans and a wise old hand to ooze hockey wisdom over the prospects. Chelios needs four more seasons to tie Gordie Howe's longevity record, which might seem a stretch, but, hey, look, he's taking his supplements.
