Seth Jarvis injury update is bad news for Hurricanes, Olympics image

Seth Jarvis is not having the most luck this season with injuries.

The latest one for the Carolina Hurricanes came in a brutal moment in overtime on Friday night.

The Hurricanes forward was on the attack, but he appeared to be tripped, and it sent him skidding into the post of the goal.

That can't have felt good.

It's not good timing for Jarvis, either.

The native of Winnipeg is making a push for an Olympic spot with a great season in Carolina, but any injury this late in the running won't help.

The Canadian team is obviously stacked, and so they don't have a reason to risk anything with a guy like Jarvis if he isn't surely and fully healthy.

Carolina clearly wouldn't want to lose Jarvis to injury, either.

Everyone will be hoping the collision just stung and wasn't worse.
