Chytil (concussion) is unlikely to return this season.

Chytil joined Vancouver via trade in February but unfortunately will likely end his campaign with six points (2G / 4A) through 15 games with the club. The 25-year-old Chytil has battled concussion concers over the past few seasons, a trend that has unfortunately followed him to his new team.

Pettersson (upper-body) missed practice on Tuesday and is considered day-to-day.

Pettersson has missed four straight games and did not practice on Tuesday but remains day-to-day with an upper-body injury. After a mostly disappointing 2024-25 campaign with 35 points (11G / 24A) in his first 55 games, Pettersson was finally starting to produce with the elite ability he's shown in recent seasons, with 10 points (4G / 6A) in the nine games before his injury. Pius Suter has stepped up in Pettersson's absence with eight points (2G / 6A) during a four-game point streak.

He has a 2.59 GAA and .901 SV% in 46 games this season (24-14-8). The Canucks enter Friday's contest as +114 road underdogs against a Blue Jackets team that is 2-7-1 in their last 10 games.
