    Cool. But Chris Chelios definitely is NOT a Penguin. ;)

    Ohh, too funny, my daily google search on "Pearl Jam" listed it as "The Penguin and the Rock Star" ... there, fixed the title, thanks! Meh, whaddaiknow... All I know is "Lincecum, Cain, And Pray for Rain!"

    He's also definitely not a Red Wing. Come on people, Cheli is a blackhawk forever! F@%K DETROIT!

    Yeah, I'm sure he relishes that cup he won in Chicago. Oh sorry that's right, the blackhawks haven't won one since the 60's.

    Chicago gets Christos! We don't have much when it comes to hockey, as pointed out, so a local boy who played his best years in his hometown stays with us. :evil:

    ps It was awesome seeing him with the cup at Vedder Chicago 2 last year.

    That's cool, but Cheli didn't actually bring the cup onstage like the article states. He just kind of brought it out and lifted it up/hung it over the balcony to the right of the stage.

    Agreed... Didn't the wings say that they wouldn't resign him a few days ago even though he still feels like he can play another year? Maybe the Hawks can sign him and he can help some of our younger guys grow some hair on their balls and learn to hit people.

    I'm so glad that Chicago is a hockey town once again... Who's ready for Blackhawks/Penguins for the cup in 2010?!?
