Tied with the legendary Gordie Howe for most NHL seasons played all-time with 26, Chris Chelios appeared in more NHL regular-season games than any defenseman in history. Suiting up for a total of 1651 National Hockey League games as well as numerous others with his native United States in international competition, Chelios would win Stanley Cup's with Montreal in 1986 and with Detroit in 2002 and 2008. Inducted into both the Hockey Hall of Fame and IIHF Hall of Fame and recently having had his famed number "7" retired by the Blackhawks, offered here is this stick used by Chelios while playing with the Windy City club in the era of the era of the early-1990s. A Sher-Wood P.M.P. 7000 model twig with "Chelios 7" stamped over the upper shaft, the stick retains its original tape job of white over the knob and black around the blade. Also still sporting its original foil accent sticker around the bottom of the shaft and signed by Chelios over the lower shaft on the forehand side with a silver marker ink signature that displays without issue, numerous factory production stamps are found on the underside of the lower shaft including one reading "Chicago". Exhibiting just light game-use through a small handful of marks and abrasions over the shaft and lower shaft, the desirable stick remains free from any cracks or breaks that we can see. Additionally, marks are seen over both sides of the blade tape as well as some wear to the wrapping on the underside of the blade that is worth pointing out for accuracy.
