Over his NHL career, which includes stops with the Colorado Avalanche and Buffalo Sabres, Jost has played in 495 games, recording 61 goals and 88 assists for 149 points. He’s also added 10 points in 46 career playoff appearances.

While his production has fluctuated over the years, he brings nearly 500 games of NHL experience to a Predators team looking to solidify its middle six. The other 21 players placed on waivers Tuesday, including Dryden Hunt, Matt Tomkins, and Ryan Suzuki, all cleared.
Jost, however, will now get a fresh opportunity in Music City.
