The team recently retired his jersey in an exciting bout which saw Connor Bedard take on Patrick Kane.
Chelios has recently launched a major tequila brand with "El Bandid Yankee Tequila" and was recently in the booth with WGN's John Wideman.
This ushered in a new tradition for the booth crew every goal by the Blackhawks this season.
Wideman, Chelios, and WGN will "Break out the Bandido"
The Blackhawks averaging 2.17 goals per game in the NHL currently, so we should be thankful that Wideman and Chelios aren't on the floor drunk by the end of every game.
El Bandido Yankee Tequila was recently covered in Forbes as the brand itself has been around since 2021 and was launched by Chelios, and former NFL player Jim Bob Morris.
This partnership with the Blackhawks is just another example of Chelios' being successful instead of not just in the sports realm, but in spirits too.
The tequila company was a self-funded endeavor from day one, and hopefully, the Blackhawks can give us all a positive reason to drink El Bandido.
