TSN is reporting that Chris Chelios has signed a one year deal with the Detroit Red Wings. Terms were not disclosed.

The Detroit Red Wings will have Chris Chelios back in the fold, as the club signed the 46-year-old blueliner to a one-year contract on Tuesday.

Chelios had three goals and 12 points in 69 regular-season games for the Wings in 2007-08.

However, due to nagging injuries, he was limited to zero points in 14 games and did not skate at all in the six-game Stanley Cup Finals as the Wings topped Pittsburgh.

Chelios is a three-time Stanley Cup champion, capturing the silver with Montreal in 1986 and with Detroit in 2002 and last season. Internationally, the Chicago native has played for USA Hockey four times in the Olympics (1984, 1998, 2002, 2006).
