Tyson Jost out on Friday vs Ducks
The 2016 1st rounder for the Avs looks unlikely to play in the next few games. Tyson Jost won’t be available to play in tonight’s matchup vs the Anaheim Ducks. Reports out of Denver also have him missing tomorrow nights game when the Avalanche travel to Dallas to take on the Stars.

This “hit” should have been grounds for suspension or at least a hearing from the NHL Department of Safety which we dove into a few days ago. You can read the...

Once again the NHL Department of Player Saftey proves they’re not worried about player safety Last night, the Colorado Avalanche got a pretty big scare when prized rookie Tyson Jost needed to be helped off the ice with an apparent leg injury with eight minutes left in the second period.

MHH Round Table: Predicting the 2017-18 Colorado Avalanche Season - Part 2
What will you be disappointed by if it doesn’t happen this season? Tom: I will be disappointed if Tyson Jost doesn’t finish in the top-5 for Calder trophy voting. He’s got the potential to be a true catalyst for this team right away and I’m going to want to see it. Mikko is really good, but Jost can be better. He could be the rookie of the year, but if he struggles and doesn’t end up in the top-5 for voting, I think it will be a disappointing season for him. Jackie: If the organization does not follow through on the youth movement promise. They need to play guys like JT Compher,...

A 2018 Calder Trophy Candidate from Every Team in the Pacific Division
A couple of the Calder front-runners will be playing for in the Pacific Division Earlier this week, I took a look at the Calder Trophy candidates for the teams in the NHL’s Central Division. Tyson Jost, Kyle Connor, and Joel Eriksson Ek are the favorites from that group. Those three will be in the conversation this season, but the Pacific Division is home to two players that start the season with better odds of becoming the rookie of the year - one in Arizona and one in Vancouver. Now, here is a list of players from the Pacific Division teams that have the highest likelihood of becoming...

Trying to predict the career trajectory of Tyson Jost
The Avalanche youngster is comparable to some pretty high-end talent It’s impossible to know exactly what a team has in a prospect when they’re selected at 18 or 19 years of age. In fact, it’s pretty damn hard at any time until they’ve settled into a full-time role in whatever league they stick in. Despite this, Tyson Jost came into the Colorado Avalanche organization with enormous expectations, being heralded in his draft year as the next Jonathan Toews. This was obviously good news for the mature youngster, who was being compared to the clutch-scoring natural leader who found...

A 2018 Calder Trophy Candidate from Every Team in the Central Division
Tyson Jost is definitely among the favorites to be the Rookie of the Year. When the NHL season began last October, Auston Matthews and Patrik Laine were the odds-on favorites to win the 2017 Calder Trophy. As the season went on, it became painfully obvious - to everyone outside of Winnipeg - that Auston Matthews was going to win the award in a landslide. This season, the Rookie of the Year race is much more wide open. An argument can be made for a number of youngsters to win the trophy. First overall pick Nico Hischier will likely be in the running, but there are a number of older rookies...
