A member of the Chicago Blackhawks may have to answer the bell on Friday night against the Vancouver Canucks after a dangerous hit on Filip Chytil last season.

For the first of three meetings this season, the Vancouver Canucks and Chicago Blackhawks will face off tonight in what should be a pretty intense battle, as Adam Foote’s group look for back-to-back wins.

The last time Vancouver and Chicago met, a dangerous incident occurred in the third period as an unsuspecting Filip Chytil was hit into the boards by Blackhawks forward & former Canuck Jason Dickinson, with no penalty called on the play.Former Canuck Jason Dickinson with a blindside hit from behind on Filip Chytil.

Chytil immediately went to the locker room.” Canucks Army said.

After the game in March, Kiefer Sherwood told reporters that they would not forget what Dickinson did, adding that “we’ll get him next year” whenever the two teams met for the first time in the 2025-26 campaign.”It’s back-to-back games that guys are taking liberties on our guys. [Dickinson] is going to have to answer the bell next year because I know we don’t play them again, but that was a dirty hit. Unnecessary. 6-2. And then he doesn’t have thewhatever to step on the ice afterwards? [Derek Forbort] asked him. It is what it is. We’ll get him next year.” Sherwood said.
Dickinson is slated to skate on Chicago’s third line against Vancouver and while the Canucks should have their focus on getting the two points tonight and extending their win streak to two games, there’s no doubt that at least a few members of the club would be open to dropping the mitts in response to that hit.Kiefer Sherwood seems the most likely to take on Jason Dickinson tonight, especially after his comments mentioned above, but you can’t rule out someone like Evander Kane or even Conor Garland.

We’ll have to wait and see what tonight’s game has in store, with puck drop set for 5:30 p.m. PT on Sportsnet One.
