Hurricanes' Jarvis (head) leaves loss to Kings

LOS ANGELES —

“I think he looks actually all right, but I don’t want to say that because you never know when they wake up the next day,” Brind’Amour said. “But I think we avoided the worst and move on.”

Jarvis leads Carolina with 27 goals and is second on the team with 52 points.

The Hurricanes were already without captain Jordan Staal (lower body) and defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere (illness) in the first game of a back-to-back, which concludes with a visit to Anaheim on Sunday. The loss to the Kings ended an eight-game winning streak.
