University of North Dakota hockey fans are already dreaming about Jost and Boeser playing together on UND’s top line. There’s a great possibility those two could end up on the same line. That being said, Jost assumes nothing and is ready to get to work.
“Boeser is such a special player,” Jost said. “You saw what he did this year. He put great numbers and he’s a great guy off of the ice. I got to spend some time with him during my official visit here. He’s such a good kid and It’s going to be pretty cool to have someone to look up to like him. He can show me the reigns or what not. It’s going to be pretty special. I don’t know what the lines are going to be or whatever, that’s a long time away. If I do get the chance to play with him it’s going to be pretty cool.”

Historically, the Avalanche haven’t taken too many college players. That being said, UND fans don’t need to worry.
“Oh, absolutely,” Executive Vice President Joe Sakic told the Denver Post. “I know he played at Penticton to go to college, and North Dakota is a great program. They’re going to help develop him, get him to the next level. … He’s there for at least one year and we’ll see after that.”
Finally, Grand Forks is still abuzz with the excitement of the Fighting Hawks winning their eighth NCAA title, with Jost in the mix, the chances of UND winning their ninth title are within reach. Jost is coming to the UND with the intention of helping UND win their ninth NCAA title.
“It’s definitely special and it’s an amazing facility and a place to play. I am hoping to go back-to-back with the national championship. It’s really special looks like we’re going to have a great group of guys next season.”
