Chris Chelios is at Wrigley Field today with the Stanley Cup.
He will sing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" during the seventh-inning stretch.
The game is on WGN and was scheduled to begin at 2:20 p.m.
It is being delayed by rain, but they expect to start soon.
BTW, in case you're wondering, Chelios is expected to sign soon and return to the Wings for his 24th NHL season.
He and GM Ken Holland reached a verbal agreement a while ago. There is no change despite the delay in the official signing.
They were waiting to determine exactly where the Wings stand with the salary-cap limitations.
But Chelios' signing was described by Holland Thursday as a "formality."
It will become official sometime between now and the opening of training camp on Sept. 20 in Traverse City.
