Overview
- Carolina waived Jost on Sept. 30 and Nashville put in a successful claim on Oct. 1.
- Jost is expected to compete for a bottom-six role and is not guaranteed a spot on the Predators’ opening-night roster.
- Nashville assigned forward Reid Schaefer to the AHL’s Milwaukee Admirals in a corresponding move.
- He logged four goals and five assists in 39 NHL games for the Hurricanes last season and added nine points in 14 AHL games with Chicago.
- The move comes as the Predators seek forward options with Luke Evangelista unsigned and prospect Matthew Wood week to week, during a waiver period that saw 37 players exposed with most clearing.
