The Vancouver Canucks face a tough situation as center Filip Chytil may miss the remainder of the season due to a concussion setback. Coach Rick Tocchet noted Chytil has had inconsistent days in his recovery, casting doubt on his return this year. Chytil, who was acquired from the New York Rangers in January, has a history of concussions, making his health a priority.

While Vancouver strives to secure a playoff spot, they also contend with injuries to key players like Elias Pettersson and Quinn Hughes. Despite the challenges, goaltender Thatcher Demko emphasized the team's commitment and effort as they prepare to face the Seattle Kraken.
