• Nashville inherits Jost’s one-year, two-way $775,000 contract that he signed with Carolina over the summer.
• Jost recorded four goals and nine points in 39 NHL games last season and matched that production in 14 AHL games with the Chicago Wolves.
• He was one of four Hurricanes forwards waived, alongside Noel Gunler, Josiah Slavin and Ryan Suzuki.
• The Predators assigned forward Reid Schaefer to AHL Milwaukee in a corresponding move.
• Jost was the lone claim from the day’s waiver wire, with the rest reported to have cleared.
