Playing career

Jost was drafted by the Everett Silvertips in the 1st round (7th overall) of the 2013 WHL Bantam Draft, but decided to reject a major junior career by playing with the Okanagan Rockets of the British Columbia Major Midget League to retain his NCAA eligibility. In the 2013–14 season with the Rockets, Jost played as an alternate captain in 36 games contributing with 44 goals and 88 points to help the Rockets claim the BCMML Championship. Jost also made his debut in the British Columbia Hockey League after agreeing to play with the Penticton Vees.

In his first full BCHL season in 2014–15, Jost's playmaking and scoring ability were apparent in helping the Vees capture the Fred Page Cup. He compiled 45 points in 46 games to earn a selection to the BCHL All-Rookie Team. Prior to his second full season with the Vees, Jost was bestowed as team captain by the Vees and committed to play collegiate hockey for North Dakota Fighting Hawks for the 2016–17 season.

In the 2015–16 season, Jost justified his status as a potential first-round pick with the Penticton Vees with a dominant 104 points in only 48 regular season games. He led the league with 62 assists and finished third in overall scoring with the highest point-per-game rate to be selected as the BCHL Most Valuable Player and earn the Canadian Junior Hockey League National Player of the Year honours.

With his selection 10th overall in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft with the Colorado Avalanche, Jost reflected the strength of the BCHL, alongside teammate Dante Fabbro and Dennis Cholowski in helping the league set a new record with 3 players taken in the first round of a draft.

Despite placing out of the medals, Jost was selected as the tournament’s “Best Forward” and was named to the All-Star Team.
