Friedman reports that the Predators have claimed forward <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/j\/jostty01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.prohockeyrumors.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-10-01_hr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Tyson Jost<\/a> from the Carolina Hurricanes.<\/p>\n<p>Heading to Nashville, Jost will join the fifth team of his career. Undoubtedly, the former 10th overall pick of the 2016 NHL Draft has fallen well short of expectations.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout his first six years in the NHL with the Colorado Avalanche, Jost was fairly productive, scoring 45 goals and 103 points in 321 games, averaging 13:29 of ice time in a third-line role. Still, he failed to break through in any meaningful fashion, and the Avalanche traded Jost to the Minnesota Wild for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/s\/sturmni01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=www.prohockeyrumors.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-10-01_hr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Nico Sturm<\/a>, who became a key depth piece for the franchise\u2019s third Stanley Cup banner.<\/p>\n<p>After failing to find a consistent role in the lineup with Minnesota, Jost was placed on waivers in mid-November of the 2022-23 season. He was subsequently claimed by the Buffalo Sabres, finishing the year with seven goals and 22 points in 59 games. Buffalo rewarded Jost\u2019s efforts with a one-year, $2MM contract the following offseason.<\/p>\n<p>For the third time in a row, Jost quickly fell out of the team\u2019s lineup due to poor performances. Buffalo sent Jost through waivers in late December, and he spent the rest of the season as an oft-taxied depth forward from the Sabres to the AHL\u2019s Rochester Americans.<\/p>\n<p>Last season, Jost joined the Hurricanes on a one-year, $775K prove-it contract, which he turned into four goals and nine points in 39 games. Still, he showed signs of life, finishing the year with the highest CorsiFor% at even strength of his career.<\/p>\n<p>The Hurricanes quickly re-signed Jost to an identical contract this summer, though he won\u2019t play it out in Carolina. Now, after today\u2019s waiver claim, he\u2019ll likely compete for the next week for a fourth-line role with the Predators.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"According to Sportsnet\u2019s Elliotte Friedman, the Nashville Predators have added to their forward depth off the waiver wire.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":195687,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[66],"tags":[4821,4826,385,99,6182,113384,9818],"class_list":["post-195686","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-carolina-hurricanes","tag-nashville-predators","tag-nhl","tag-sports","tag-transactions","tag-tyson-jost","tag-waivers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/195686","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=195686"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/195686\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/195687"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=195686"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=195686"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=195686"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
