from John Glennon of the Tennessean,
One of the names being tossed around is 47-year-old Chris Chelios, whose abrasive style of play and frequent conversations with referees often made him a target of Predators fans.
Coach Barry Trotz and Chelios recently had a light-hearted talk on the topic.
“I said, ‘Chris, are you sure you’d have the interest of playing in Nashville, because you’re not exactly well-liked here?’ ‘’ Trotz said. “He said, ‘Trotzy, trust me, I’m not well-liked anywhere.’ I said ‘Yeah, I guess you’re right.’ ‘’

I can imagine Chris playing anywhere, on any of the 30 teams. Or overseas.
He’ll probably play somewhere until he’s about 55.
