BSN’s 2016 top 25 Colorado Avalanche under 25 rolls on to number nine and J.T. Compher. The NCAA standout was acquired by the Avalanche as part of the O’Reilly trade, and the young center gave up his senior year of eligibility to sign a contract with the Avs this summer. While he’s likely San Antonio bound, his reliable 2-way play could earn a spot on a NHL roster sooner than later.
Compher ranked #9 on all seven ballots, cementing himself in that spot on the final list as well.
Who is J.T. Compher?
J.T. Compher is originally a product of the US National Team Development Program in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
