Jarvis spoke with Daily Faceoff's Frank Seravalli and said that he's happy to see Yandle on the verge of breaking his record he set back in 1987.
"My emotion is I'm just happy for him," Jarvis said. A lot of people have said to me, 'That record will never be broken.' And I'm like, 'Why won't it be?' I'm really surprised that it's been 35 years."
He went on to add, "It's one of those records that you just, at least for me - I'm just speaking for myself - I don't feel you can set out to break or pass," the 66-year-old said. "There's so many things. It's not just injuries. There's been a number of players that have gotten close over the years that ended apart from injuries."
Since Yandle's ironman streak began back in March of 2009, he put up over 550 points and has played with the Phoenix/Arizona Coyotes, New York Rangers, Florida Panthers, and now the Philadelphia Flyers.
"I'd just say congratulations and well done," Jarvis said. "I'm really happy for him and the career he is having and it's great that he's basically been able to stay injury free through it."
Puck drop for tonight's game between Philadelphia and Dallas is set for 7pm ET.
