The value extends beyond putting another name on the lineup sheet. Adding a forward can change how responsibilities are distributed across multiple combinations. One player moves into a scoring role, another shifts to a different line. The coaching staff gains more flexibility to respond the matchup or adjust when a group isn't generating enough offense that's why the eventual decision will involve more than finding an open spot where does Jarvis fit best he's always played line one was fetching aho in the playoffs he was moved down to line three and they moved Martin up to line one and Jarvis started performing alongside Ehlers and Stahl so does he just give Jarvis line one back and move Carrier back down or does Rod evaluate does Rod look at the playoffs and say hey Jarvie played great along along with Giorno and Ehlers why don't we just keep Carrier here or move Carrier back down to four move Martinuk up to one unfortunately KK would have to go away but the possibilities are endless because it's Seth Jarvis you want Seth Jarvis on the ice as much as possible we we don't know how he's going to do when he gets back to the nhl he might be rusty so having the flexibility of knowing he can produce with giordo and eatlers down on three or he can hang along a white hot sebastian ajo and andrej svetchnikov up on one you know that's why the eventual decision will involve more than finding just an open spot where does jarvis fit best what combination benefits most from his return and which existing partnership ships are worth keeping together that's another question carrier is playing very well with aho and svechnikov aho is real hot right now so hot right now console so hot right now sebastian aho is doing all that with carrier it's this is a good problem to have canyax this is another good problem to have just like who are we going to start we got two viable options to start in net is it gonna bussy or kochek off if one of them goes down we got another viable option in kate and primo with the chicago wolves what a horrible decision to make it's hard but some teams if you look at uh let's say the rangers or anybody else in the league i mean look what look what florida's going through right now marshawn is out again barkoff is out what other options do they have we have so many options it's like so scary how just i love these options this is a good option this is a good problem to have where was i those answers will depend on what the coaches see when he progresses from working as an extra to take regular line reps special teams will also be worth watching an eventual return could expand carolina's options but we shouldn't assume his responsibilities will immediately match wherever the team ultimately wants for him the relevant evidence will come from practice deployment whether he joins a power play group takes penalty killing reps or begins receiving a broader workload those details will tell us more about the planned role than the color of his jersey there's also a distinction between returning to the lineup and return to full effectiveness game speed introduces decisions and physical demands that practice cannot completely reproduce a player has to react to pressure win possession execute while an opponent is actually trying to destroy him for jarvis the evaluation will be whether he can handle those demands not simply whether he can participate in a morning skate So what should we be watching next, Caniacs? I'm going to be watching his placement. Does he remain an extra? Does he move to a regular forward combination? Is he with Giordo? Is he with Svetch? Probably second would be his workload. Is he taking more repetitions and participating across more game situations? And the third is a direct update from the team about his availability. Until it comes out of Hurricanes PR, you never know. Until then, there's no return date established. The strongest conclusion we can draw is also a meaningful one. Jarvis has reached a new stage in his practice participation following off-season shoulder surgery. Carolina now has a development to monitor as it considers how an eventual return could reshape the forward group. For today, the regular jersey is an encouraging headline. working as an extra is the detail that keeps expectations grounded and going i'm very very happy about all this and you should be too reminder we're over on x at canes digest click follow for more hurricanes take on vancouver and raleigh tonight 7 p.m puck drop yes jarvis's jersey was white no he is not playing tonight he probably won't be playing for the rest of october potentially um personally this is sped up pretty good for jarvis so 7 p.m pup drop tonight at the lenovo and it's two dollar hot dog night so buy your ticket go buy like six dogs it's only 12 bucks you're good get some storm brew and everything is good as we look to destroy the vancouver canucks so if anything else comes down i'll be the first to let you know until then for hurricanes digest i'm jeff testanaro let's go canes beat the canucks again sorry pie
