Tyson Jost News: Produces pair of assists Sunday

Jost recorded two assists and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Islanders.

Jost drew into the lineup for Jordan Staal (lower body) after being a healthy scratch Friday versus the Canadiens. The 27-year-old Jost has four assists across his last six games despite primarily serving in a fourth-line role. The odds aren't great for him to keep his offense rolling in the long run, but he's emerged as a reliable depth forward for the Hurricanes. He's at six points, 27 shots on net, 36 hits and a plus-2 rating through 30 appearances this season.
