Early life

Playing career

On October 6, 2020, Jarvis was selected by the Carolina Hurricanes with the 13th overall pick in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft.[3] The draft choice used to select Jarvis was acquired along with Patrick Marleau and a seventh-round draft pick from the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for a sixth-round draft pick; a trade that gave Toronto salary cap relief. On December 28, Jarvis signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Hurricanes.[4]

Jarvis eventually made his NHL debut on October 31, 2021, where he also recorded his first point.[5] On November 3, Jarvis scored his first career NHL goal against the Chicago Blackhawks. Jarvis ended the season with 17 goals and 23 assists for 40 points in 68 games played.

On February 16, 2023, Jarvis recorded his first career hat trick in a 6–2 victory against the Montreal Canadiens.[6]
