No thanks. No need for Kerfoot, Rossi should center that line with Boldy and Gaudreau on his wings.

Is Kerfoot any better than Jost???

Yes. Better at everything.

yes. and its not really close.

For now.

It's a bit subjective to say that Kerfoot is definitively better than Jost.

Jost is slightly less than 4 years younger than Kerfoot. He's also an inch taller and 2 lbs heavier. Their numbers and stats aren't too dissimilar over the last three years except for barring this past season when Kerfoot had a career year in points and stats.

There's a legitimate case to be made that with a legitimate chance and a full season next to better talent in a top-six role for Jost, that he could become a much better player than Kerfoot whose career year came next to better players in a 2nd line role last year.

Of particular interest is the 3 year comparable and player usage chart at the bottom, with seasons set to all... not just the 21-22 season, to get a better sense of which player is better.

The data suggests that Jost has better underlying numbers and that he could flourish with a bigger role with better linemates if given a chance for a full season. Such as his higher shooting numbers and having won more faceoffs than Kerfoot despite having a lower faceoff percentage.
