Calgary, Alta. - The Western Hockey League announced today that Portland Winterhawks forward Seth Jarvis has been named the WHL McSweeney's Player of the Month for January 2020.

A prospect eligible for the 2020 NHL Draft, Jarvis recorded 29 points (11G-18A) and a plus-17 rating in 10 games during the calendar month. His 29 points paced all WHL skaters in January scoring. The Winterhawks thrived in January, posting a 10-1-1-0 record in 12 games.

Jarvis' month featured points in all 10 games he appeared in, including seven multi-point games that were highlighted a pair of career-best five-point performances. He recorded four multi-goal games as part of his month, including the first hat trick of his WHL career on January 4 at home against the Tri-City Americans.

Twice, Jarvis was recognized as the WHL On the Run Player of the Week, earning the honors for the weeks ending January 12 and January 26. He earned first-star honors in a game three times and was named the second star of the game twice. Jarvis was named the WHL's first, second, and third star of the night once each.

Jarvis is steadily rising on the rankings of North American skaters for the 2020 NHL Draft. In the midterm rankings released by NHL Central Scouting last month, Jarvis was ranked 19th among North American skaters.

A 5-foot-10, 172-pound product of Winnipeg, Man., the 18-year-old Jarvis has recorded 64 points (26G-38A) in 43 games this season, including eight power-play goals, one short-handed goal, and five game-winning goals.
