Forgive my stupidity, but isn't "critically injured" a nice way of saying he was killed?

No, it means his injuries are really figgin bad. Critical, I believe, is the worst state to be in... well, other than dead. There's a % factor or something too... just because you are critical, doesn't mean you are dead or going to die. That's why sometimes you here X has been upgraded from critical to severe.
