Hope you're having a great Wednesday.

Without further ado, we're going to bring in our pal, Steve Peters, of Inside the Coaches

Room, ESPN, our former colleague here at All City, our video analyst.

And I know we've got a lot of new viewers as the Hawks have sort of picked up steam here.

Petey is the best at breaking down hockey.

He's been with us since we started and we have had a lot of demand from our viewers to say

what is going on with Wyatt Kaiser?

Why is he playing so well?

So that was Petey's assignment today.

How are you doing, buddy?

It's good to see you.

I'm doing really well. And more importantly it's it's seven games into the season and the chicago blackhawks are in a playoff position that's too early maybe maybe a shape but it's good news

yeah exactly don't they say by canadian thanksgiving you know the playoff standings isn't that the

old exactly i think that's it we We'll take it. We'll take it. So I know you've got a lot for us. And I don't know how up on Wyatt Kaiser you were before I reached out. I don't know how close was I even keeping. But before we get to the breakdown, just your thoughts watching the tape on not only why Kaiser, but the Blackhawks this year.

You know, this is a different team.
