LeftWinger 5,132 Report post Posted July 19, 2018 (edited) Makes sense. His mother needs him more than we do. Never, EVER did I think I'd be saying this, but Thank You Chris Chelios for all you've done for our organization! ...and the infamous interview in January 1999. It's 17:00 minutes long, but skip to 10:00 and listen through 11:00ish to hear the "Never play for Detroit, that's how much I hate them..." Low and behold, two months later...

Neomaxizoomdweebie 3,083 Report post Posted July 19, 2018 5 hours ago, F.Michael said: Many moons ago I was in attendance for Wings/Hawks, and Leafs/Hawks games at the old Chicago Stadium. Chelios was still a Blackhawk, and before the game I'd go to his restaurant on the west side - Chelios Chili (keep in mind - the one on Detroit is 'nice' - the one that was in Chicago was a bit of a hole in the wall joint that was crawling with roaches, and I don't mean the insect variety). His mom, and dad worked there - serving food/drinks...I'll never forget the 2 of them...His dad had the Greek fisherman cap, and was friendly...His mom was this petite slender woman with big 80's hair...All in all great people! As much as I loathed Chelios while a Chicago Blackhawk - I was a big fan of his while a Red Wing. EDIT - almost forgot the young female assistant he was with when we ran into him at the Starbucks inside the Renaissance Center...Niiice. "Assistant"...right.
