Rick Rypien (born May 16, 1984 in Coleman, Alberta) is a Canadian ice hockey player for the Vancouver Canucks. He is the son of Wes Rypien who was a Canadian Champion for boxing.

Rypien played his junior hockey with the Regina Pats of the Western Hockey League. He was never drafted by an NHL club. He was signed by the Manitoba Moose of the AHL to an amateur tryout late in the 2005 season.

He made his NHL debut for the Vancouver Canucks against the Edmonton Oilers on December 21, 2005. In that game he scored his first NHL goal on his first shot in the first period.

He is a cousin of former NFL quarterback Mark Rypien.
