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 mid-to-late-1990s. A Sher-Wood made P.M.P.X. 9950 model twig with "Chris Chelios 7" graphics over the shaft, the stick retains its original tape job of white over the knob and blade around the blade while an accent sticker is still present over the lower shaft. Exhibiting good game-wear via numerous marks and abrasions over the entirety of the shaft as well as over both sides of the blade tape, which has faded heavily, Chelios as also signed the stick over the forehand side of the heel with a black marker ink signature that displays well despite some fading being observed due to age.
