Hurricanes Lose Jarvis, Kotkaniemi to Injuries in Game vs. Canucks

Team evaluations are underway with cautious optimism on Jarvis’s timeline.

Overview

  • Jarvis was clipped near the eye by Andrei Svechnikov’s high stick early in the first period and was ruled out with an upper-body injury.
  • Kotkaniemi left in the second period after blocking a shot and was declared out with a lower-body injury, which coach Rod Brind’Amour identified as an ankle issue.
  • Brind’Amour said the early belief is Jarvis should not be out for long, though the team has not issued a formal timetable.
  • Jarvis has produced 10 goals and 16 points in 17 games this season, while Kotkaniemi has three goals and two assists in 15 appearances.
  • Svechnikov will not face supplemental discipline for a late-game elbow on Filip Hronek, according to local reporting.
