Beautiful. One of the things I always marveled at about hockey is that despite its physical demands (it is the most physically demanding of any major team sport), there is an occasional story like this about an older player who can still get it done.

Chris Chelios -- a certain NHL Hall of Famer in a couple of years -- played his last game in the NHL when he was something like 48 years old, and was still taking regular shifts as a defenseman with the Detroit Red Wings well into his mid-40s.
