The Blackhawks are back on the ice in St. Louis on Wednesday with a chance to win two games in a row. Coming off a win, let’s take a moment to give a couple specific players their flowers on the off day between games.
Wyatt Kaiser’s excellence
Let’s start with Blackhawks defenseman Wyatt Kaiser. On Tuesday, HockeyStatCards tweeted the updated net ratings. Kaiser is tied for the best rating in the NHL with LA’s Brandt Clarke. This tells us that, early in the 2025-26 season, Kaiser is among the elite defensive defensemen in the entire NHL.

Only Doughty has a lower expected Goals Against (1.76) than Kaiser (1.95). Doughty and Fox have won Norris Trophies. Forsling and Toews have received votes.
