Chicago Blackhawks center Jason Dickinson (wrist) has been ruled out for the remainder of the season. Dickinson injured his wrist in a fight with St. Louis Blues forward Jake Neighbours on Saturday. The 29-year-old also missed time recently due to an ankle sprain, meaning he will finish the season with only 59 appearances. Dickinson recorded seven goals and nine assists while handing out 102 hits. With him shelved from the rest of the year, Philipp Kurashev will receive regular playing opportunities. He notched two assists when Chicago inserted Kurashev into the lineup on Sunday against the Philadelphia Flyers. However, fantasy managers should not expect him to become a consistent offensive contributor, as Kurashev has totaled only 12 points (six goals, six assists) in 44 games this season.
Chicago Blackhawks center Jason Dickinson (undisclosed) took only six shifts during Saturday's 4-1 defeat against the St. Louis Blues. He exited the action early in the game following a fight with Blues forward Jake Neighbours, resulting in 17 penalty minutes for Dickinson. It was his eighth straight game without registering any points. Although Dickinson has spent time in the top six, his production has been limited to seven goals and six assists in 59 games. If Dickinson isn't healthy enough to play on Sunday against the Philadelphia Flyers, the Blackhawks will likely turn to Philipp Kurashev, whose efforts in 2024-25 have resulted in six goals and 10 points in 43 outings.
Chicago Blackhawks center Jason Dickinson (ankle) will re-enter the lineup on Monday against the Colorado Avalanche. The 26-year-old hasn't played for over a month due to a high-ankle sprain. Dickinson has amassed a modest 16 points (seven goals, nine assists) in 53 games while dishing out 93 hits. However, he will have some fantasy appeal on Monday, as Dickinson is projected to join Connor Bedard on the first line. Following a six-game scoring drought, Bedard has notched three points (one goal, two assists) in two games. Colton Dach will complete the first-line trio against the Avalanche.
Jason Dickinson Expected To Miss A "Couple Of Games"
Chicago Blackhawks center Jason Dickinson (ankle) is set to miss the rest of this week's action. Blackhawks interim head coach Anders Sorensen announced that Dickinson is dealing with a high-ankle sprain, ruling him out for a "couple of games." Chicago returns to action on Friday against the Nashville Predators and is also scheduled to meet the St. Louis Blues on Saturday. Following the weekend, the NHL will take a break for the 4 Nations Face-Off tournament, so Dickinson will get some good recovery time before the next Blackhawks game comes around. The 29-year-old has picked up seven goals and 16 points in 53 games this season. Frank Nazar worked as the second-line center in Dickinson's absence during Thursday's practice.
According to the team, Chicago Blackhawks center Jason Dickinson (lower body) exited early during Wednesday's loss to the Edmonton Oilers. Dickinson sustained this injury during the second frame and needed assistance to get off the ice. Before exiting, he logged just over seven minutes of ice time. He tallied two shots on goal and two hits. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to their next game against the Nashville Predators on Friday evening. If Dickinson were to miss time, Frank Nazar would likely move up to the second line. Entering Wednesday, Dickinson tallied two helpers, eight hits, and eight blocks over his previous three contests. Across 53 contests, the 29-year-old has found the back of the net seven times and added nine helpers.
Chicago Blackhawks center Jason Dickinson (hand) is expected to remain in the lineup on Saturday versus Philadelphia. He injured his hand Thursday against Florida. Dickinson has lately found himself as the Blackhawks' first-line center, with Connor Bedard skating on the wing. He produced a two-goal effort against Anaheim earlier in the week. The season as a whole hasn't been very fruitful for Dickinson, as he's sitting on seven points (four goals, three assists) through 20 games. However, that's been the case for most Chicago skaters, with the team scoring only 2.35 goals per game, which is the third-worst mark in the league.
Jason Dickinson Leads Team To Victory With First Career Hat Trick
Chicago Blackhawks center Jason Dickinson recorded his first career hat trick in Friday's 4-3 overtime victory against the Maple Leafs. Dickinson's offensive outburst doubled his goal total for the season, as the 28-year-old forward entered the contest with three goals through 17 games. The 28-year-old will almost certainly set a new career-high in scoring during the 2023-24 season, with his previous career-best being nine goals on two occasions. Dickinson is worth rostering in deep fantasy formats as he ranks second on the team in scoring with totals of six goals and 11 points through 18 games.
Chicago Blackhawks forward Jason Dickinson (illness) is set to return from a two-game absence Wednesday against St. Louis. He's battled a non-COVID illness lately, losing 7-8 pounds and sitting out a pair of games. The 27-year-old has produced a surprisingly good start to the campaign, posting four goals and three assists in 11 outings. He has also handed out 16 hits and has blocked 10 shots from the opposition. Dickinson's return is likely bad news for Jujhar Khaira, who entered the lineup in his place last week.
Vancouver Canucks forward Jason Dickinson will start Wednesday's contest against the Golden Knights on the second line. He'll skate with Bo Horvat and Conor Garland. The Canucks are forced to reshuffle the top six because Brock Boeser (upper body) is unavailable. Dickinson himself was recently out of action for multiple weeks and has only just made his return from a lower-body injury. The 26-year-old has only six points in 50 games this season, but playing on the second line will give him a good chance to up his productivity. Boeser is also set to miss Thursday's battle with the Coyotes, so this likely won't be a one-off thing for Dickinson.
Vancouver Canucks center Jason Dickinson was placed into the NHL's COVID protocol on Saturday night. This means he will not play against the Seattle Kraken. Due to injuries and other positive cases, Dickinson was playing almost a top-six role at times over the past three games. Typically, he is a bottom-six forward who plays 13-14 minutes a night. Overall, Dickinson has two goals and two assists in 31 games this season. Barring a false positive, the center may not be available till later next week at the earliest.
