No Update From Canucks On Filip Chytil Injury

March 16, 2025 at 3:58 pm CDT | by Paul Griser 7 Comments

Vancouver Canuck forward Filip Chytil was injured during the third period of last night’s game, leaving fans and the team uncertain about his condition, per Jim Cerny of Forever Blueshirts. As of now, there has been no official update on the severity of the injury, adding to the growing concern for a player with a troubled injury history.

During Saturday’s game against the Blackhawks, Chytil was helped off the ice following a blindside hit by forward Jason Dickinson with 4:42 remaining in the contest. Chytil was noticeably wobbled by the hit, falling to the ice after attempting to stand under his own power – a troubling site for a player with at least four known concussions in his career with the New York Rangers. Chytil, who spent eight seasons with New York, was traded to the Canucks as a part of the JT Miller deal in late January.

After the game, head coach Rick Tocchet did not provide an update on the injury but agreed that the optics didn’t look good. Tocchet called the hit “pretty ugly” in his post-game comments and added that he did not receive communication from the refs as to why Dickinson did not receive a penalty for the hit.

When healthy, Chytil has been a solid supporting cast member throughout his 393 career NHL games. He has eclipsed the 10-goal mark in four seasons, including 13 this year combined between the Rangers and Canucks. Originally a first rounder of the Rangers in the 2017 draft (21st overall), Chytil saw game action in nine NHL games during his age 18 season, before becoming a regular fixture in their bottom six the following season. In 378 career games in New York, he registered 75 goals and 164 points. He added an additional 13 points in 36 career playoff contests.

At just 25 years of age, there is still time for Chytil to flash his first-round pedigree. However, injuries continue to play a factor in his career’s trajectory. The Canucks will likely provide more information in the coming days, but for now, Chytil’s status remains unclear.

    I feel so bad for this poor kid. I’m a Ranger fan, and I wish him the best. He’s got a lot of talent when on the ice, but this is a scary situation for him.

    Definitely a talented player, and he’s got good size too! Weird that it’s been such a hard go clicking for him in the league. Hopefully it’s a bit of tight-lipping moreso than unfortunate news.

    Return for Miller was already looking soft, and hopefully Chytil gets back on the ice feeling better soon.
