    In late December, the Buffalo Sabres placed Tyson Jost on waivers and sent him down to the AHL once he cleared. These decisions were not particularly surprising, as the 2016 first-round pick struggled with Buffalo this campaign, posting just two goals, two assists, and a minus-7 rating in 29 games. 

    Yet, since being demoted, Jost has found success with the Rochester Americans. In 11 games with the AHL club thus far, he has two goals to go along with 10 points. He also has been heating up as of late, as he had a three-assist night against the Laval Rocket on Jan. 27.

    With Jack Quinn now out for eight weeks, the Sabres are in a position to call up a forward from the AHL. Given Jost's play since his demotion, he may warrant some consideration. This is especially so if the Sabres want to call up an experienced player rather than one of their top prospects. 

    We will need to wait and see if the Sabres give Jost another shot on their NHL roster once the All-Star break is over from here.
