For now, no one knows whether it’s because of a refusal to extend his contract or if it’s an administrative decision related to comments about him from fans.

It’s quite possible that he might find a job quite quickly in the field, as he is a well-respected member of the Hall of Fame in the world of media.

Hall of Famer Chris Chelios will not return to ESPN as an in-studio NHL analyst next season, a source with knowledge on ESPN staffing confirmed.

Chelios won’t have his contract renewed in a move that’s part of the larger cuts taking place at Disney.
