Hurricanes Activate Seth Jarvis From Injured Reserve

Overview

• The Carolina Hurricanes announced Wednesday that 24-year-old winger Seth Jarvis has been activated off the injured non-roster list and the team recalled Skyler Brind'Amour while assigning Bradly Nadeau to the AHL’s Chicago Wolves.
• Jarvis had offseason surgery on his right shoulder in late June and was originally given a four-to-six month recovery window but returned about three months and three weeks after the procedure.
• Carolina practiced Jarvis on a third line with Jesperi Kotkaniemi and Jordan Martinook and gave him time on the second power-play unit as the team readied him to play.
• The team says Jarvis is slated to make his season debut Thursday in Edmonton and coaches caution he may need reps to rediscover full speed and timing.
• Jarvis scored 32 goals and 34 assists in 71 regular-season games last year, added 11 playoff points in the Cup run, and his return strengthens Carolina’s depth as it sits atop the division at 8-2-1 and finishes a five-game road trip.
