What happened: Nashville agreed to terms with 28-year-old forward Tyson Jost on a deal carrying an $850K NHL cap hit and $475K in the minors. The contract includes $500K guaranteed, with Jost expected to hit waivers today and miss the opening roster submission.
Why it matters: The two-way structure gives Nashville a low-cost depth option that can move between levels. The guaranteed money rewards a strong camp while preserving flexibility before the roster freeze.
What to watch: Clearing waivers today determines whether Jost stays in the organization. Nashville's submitted opening roster will show where the depth chart lands.
