Colorado Avalanche: Early Season Evaluation and Pressure for Tyson Jost

Colorado Avalanche center Tyson Jost is a bust, or that’s what some Avs fans and pundits seem to believe. Boy, I’d think being a 20-year-old bust would be impossible in any profession except teen modeling, and there’s probably some leeway there, too.

I’m going to throw a hot take out there: Tyson Jost is not a bust. Nor is he on pace to be one.

The Colorado Avalanche selected Tyson Jost in the 2016 NHL Draft with their #10 pick. Jost already had an impressive resume at the lower levels.

Highlights include earning 86 points 39 goals, 47 assists) in 43 games then 109 points (56 goals, 53 assists) in 33 games with the Pursuit if Excellence Bantam Prep, which is the highest caliber of minor hockey.
