Personal
Nikos is a cousin of long-time NHL defenseman Chris Chelios. Nikos also tried for the ELLAS Greece National Team in the 2006. Nikos early childhood summers were spent in Greece on the island of Evia. Nikos and cousin Chris, spent summers playing ball hockey in their parents village of Farakla. They joke about this at family gatherings today in Chicago, as their cousins in Evia, Greece, continue to play ball hockey in a country where soccer reigns. Their uncle George Spartalis (Chris Chelios mother's brother)who lives on the Island, runs a small inter ball hockey league today where 4 teams compete. Trifonia Spartalis, Evia's mayor, finds the spirit of the game to be more exciting than the local soccer clubs which gather more attendance.
Tselios now owns and operates an instructional hockey business entitled Ultimate Hockey Camps, and resides in Winfield, Illinois with his personal assistant, Joe Renzi and his chauffeur, Jesse Ratzloff.
