Chris Chelios, a possible future Hall of Famer, just made the worst blunder of his career, and it wasn't even on the ice. According to TSN, Chelios said that NHL commissioner Gary Bettman (who is Jewish) should "get the gas" for his treatment of the players. Poor choice of words? Taken out of context?

He did find a place to play for $400 a week. Only it was for the Motor City Mechanics. Chelios will take a pay cut to play for the Wings and I think the Wings would retain him. Who would take a chance with him with the possible salary cap that they are talking about? Your'e right about him making that statement without thinking- regardless of Bettman's religion. He has always been a jackass and has always used the wrong choice of words in the past.

But that was a bad choice of words-typical of him. Still cannot get used to him being a Wing...
