2025 Fantasy Outlook
Jost spent time in both the NHL and AHL last year, but he saw more action with the Hurricanes, recording four goals, nine points, 46 hits and a plus-2 rating across 39 regular-season outings. Originally back with Carolina on a one-year, two-way pact, the 27-year-old was far from guaranteed to receive steady bottom-six minutes with the big club in 2025-26. Now, the center finds himself in Nashville after being claimed off waivers. He's not guaranteed a bigger role with the Preds, but it's certainly a better opportunity than fighting for minutes in the minors. Even if Jost earns a larger role, his career high in points (26) came with Colorado in 2018-19, and his non-scoring contributions are few and far between. Read Past Outlooks

Claimed off waivers
Jost was claimed off waivers by Nashville from Carolina on Wednesday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
ANALYSIS
Jost had four goals, nine points, 33 PIM and 46 hits across 39 regular-season outings with the Hurricanes in 2024-25. The 27-year-old is now projected to start the season in the NHL with Nashville, but it remains to be seen if Jost will be a part of the Predators' bottom six for their season opener against Columbus on Oct. 9 or if he'll begin the campaign as a healthy scratch.

2017
Although Jost was originally taken with the No. 10 overall pick in the 2016 NHL Draft, the 26-year-old didn't develop into a high-end forward. Still, Jost has managed to accumulate 456 career NHL games as a role player who will drift in and out of the lineup as needed. In 2023-24, the Alberta native recorded three goals, six points, 10 PIM, 48 shots and 44 hits in 43 contests with the Sabres while averaging 10:36 of ice time. Now with Carolina on a one-year, $775,000 contract, Jost is likely to make the Hurricanes' roster but will probably spend a significant portion of the season as a healthy scratch. On the plus side, he might provide an uptick in offensive production relative to last season -- Jost has reached the 20-point mark five times in his career.
