Pots goal Saturday Kaiser scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Ducks.

Impact Kaiser earned his first NHL point since Jan. 5, though he spent the bulk of the last two months in the minors. The 22-year-old defenseman is likely to get a chance to stick in the lineup following Saturday's trade that sent Seth Jones to the Panthers, opening a spot on the Blackhawks' blue line. Kaiser has two goals, two assists, 45 shots on net, 37 hits, 65 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 36 appearances with Chicago this season, though he still needs to work on keeping his performance steady on a game-to-game basis.

Recalled from AHL Kaiser was called up from AHL Rockford on Friday, per Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio.

Impact Kaiser played 35 games with the Blackhawks earlier in the season, picking up one goal and two assists before being sent to the AHL on Jan. 23. Kaiser had three assists over 17 AHL games before his recall. The Blackhawks sent Nolan Allan to Rockford in a corresponding move.

Heads to minors Kaiser was reassigned to AHL Rockford on Thursday, per Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio.

Impact Kaiser has a goal and three points in 35 appearances with the Blackhawks in 2024-25. It's possible Kaiser will be recalled ahead of Friday's tilt, but Chicago still has seven healthy defensemen on its active roster, so it wouldn't be shocking if the 22-year-old blueliner ends up being in the minors for a significant stretch of time.

Scores first career NHL goal Sunday Kaiser potted his first career NHL goal in Sunday's 6-2 loss to the Rangers.

Impact It took 71 career NHL games, but Kaiser finally got his first marker after being set up by Frank Nazar late in the second period. Kaiser has gotten on the scoresheet in back-to-back games after not being in the lineup for Chicago's prior five contests. The 22-year-old could be sent to AHL Rockford when Alec Martinez (neck) and Connor Murphy (groin) are ready to return, but Kaiser seems to be making strides in his third NHL season -- he's currently skating with Seth Jones on the top pairing. Through 30 appearances in 2024-25, Kaiser has contributed one goal and two helpers while averaging 17:37 of ice time.

Chips in with assist Kaiser logged an assist in Friday's 4-2 win over the Canadiens.

Impact This was Kaiser's first action since he was recalled from AHL Rockford on Sunday. The 22-year-old defenseman filled in for Connor Murphy (groin) in Friday's contest. Kaiser has two helpers, 33 shots on net, 33 hits, 54 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 29 appearances. He's not guaranteed to stick in the NHL once the Blackhawks' defense gets back to full health.

JANUARY 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled Sunday Kaiser was recalled from AHL Rockford on Sunday.

Impact Kaiser will rejoin Chicago after he was sent down before the holiday break. The 22-year-old defenseman played in 28 NHL games this season, logging one assist and a minus-4 rating.

DECEMBER 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Reassigned to OHL Kaiser was sent to AHL Rockford on Friday, per Charlie Roumeliotis of WGN Radio.

Impact The 22-year-old defenseman had been a healthy scratch in the Blackhawks' last three games. Kaiser picked up an assist in his second game of the season, but was without a point in his last 26 games. Kaiser will get a chance to play a lot and regain his confidence offensively with the IceHogs.

DECEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Searching for offense Kaiser is in a 16-game point drought after failing to record a point in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Ducks.

Impact Kaiser has been a regular in the Blackhawks' lineup after missing Opening Night due to an illness. He picked up an assist in his second game of the year, but it's been all zeroes in the scoring categories since. The 22-year-old has added 17 shots on net, 28 hits, 35 blocked shots, eight PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 18 appearances in a bottom-four role. For now, it looks like Nolan Allan and Louis Crevier will compete for the last spot in the lineup, but Kaiser could also be at risk of a scratch if he doesn't find a little offense.

NOVEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Chips in with helper Kaiser logged an assist, four hits and three blocked shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Oilers.

Impact Kaiser brought the physical play and managed to get on the scoresheet when he assisted on a Philipp Kurashev goal in the first period. The 22-year-old Kaiser has four hits and eight blocks over two appearances this season after missing the season opener due to an illness. The blueliner offers a decent physical game, but with 11 helpers over 43 career appearances, his offense is modest at best.

OCTOBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Activated off injured reserve Kaiser (illness) was taken off injured reserve Thursday.

Impact Kaiser's activation saw Isaak Phillips sent down to AHL Rockford in a corresponding move. For his part, the 22-year-old Kaiser will need to edge out youngster Nolan Allan for a spot in the lineup against the Jets on Friday. If Kaiser does get into the lineup, he should offer decent mid-range fantasy value after racking up seven assists in 32 games last year.

OCTOBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to return early in season Coach Luke Richardson said Monday that Kaiser (illness) will likely be available late in Chicago's season-opening road trip or shortly after, Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times repo...

Impact Kaiser was placed on injured reserve Friday, retroactive to Sept. 19, due to an illness. However, it doesn't appear as though he'll be forced to miss significant time to begin the regular season. The Blackhawks open the 2024-25 campaign with four consecutive games on the road, but Kaiser could be cleared to return sometime in mid-October.

OCTOBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Lands on injured reserve Kaiser (illness) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Mario Tirabassi of CHGO Sports reports.

Impact Kaiser's placement on IR is retroactive to Sept. 19. He missed about a week of practice earlier in training camp, and it appears this may be the reason why. It's safe to assume Kaiser will miss the Blackhawks' last two preseason games.

OCTOBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Kaiser (undisclosed) was cleared Tuesday and should be back on the ice soon, Charlie Roumeliotis of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

Impact Kaier hasn't skated since Sept. 24 after an unexpected issue was discovered during his training camp physicals. Following some invasive testing, he has received the green light to return. Kaiser produced seven assists, 18 shots on goal, 46 blocked shots and 22 hits in 32 regular-season outings with the Blackhawks in 2023-24.

OCTOBER 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Absent from practice again Kaiser (undisclosed) didn't practice Monday, per Charlie Roumeliotis of NBC Sports Chicago.

Impact Kaiser hasn't skated since Sept. 24 due to an injury. It's unclear if he will be available to play in any of Chicago's final three preseason contests. Kaiser registered seven assists, 18 shots on goal, 46 blocked shots and 22 hits in 32 regular-season outings with the Blackhawks in 2023-24.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to AHL Kaiser was loaned to AHL Rockford on Monday, per Ben Pope of the Chicago Sun-Times.

Impact Kaiser has seven assists, 18 shots on goal, 46 blocked shots and 22 hits in 32 NHL appearances this season. His demotion could bode well for the availability of Connor Murphy (groin) ahead of Wednesday's matchup against St. Louis.

Blackhawks' Wyatt Kaiser now using his speed to escape trouble, not create it This month, the Hawks' rookie defenseman has much more closely resembled his impressive October form than his slumping November form.

MARCH 30, 2024 • SUNTIMES.COM

Produces helper Saturday Kaiser notched an assist, two blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks.

Impact This was Kaiser's first point in three games since he rejoined the NHL roster. The 21-year-old defenseman has five helpers, 12 shots on net, 20 hits, 34 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 26 appearances this season. He's still learning on the job, but in a bottom-four role, he has little fantasy appeal.

MARCH 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Brought up from AHL Kaiser was recalled from AHL Rockford on Monday, per CapFriendly.

Impact Kaiser has compiled four assists, 29 blocked shots, 17 hits and 20 PIM across 23 NHL outings this season. The 21-year-old rearguard also has three goals, 15 points and 28 PIM in 31 AHL contests during the 2023-24 campaign.

DECEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Summoned from AHL Kaiser was recalled from AHL Rockford on Saturday.

Impact If Alex Vlasic (upper body) can't play Sunday against Vancouver, Kaiser will likely be in the lineup. The 21-year-old Kaiser has picked up four assists, nine shots on goal, 27 blocked shots and 15 hits in 21 NHL appearances this season.
