Coming up a point shy of a playoff spot this season, the Detroit Red Wings were learning some valuable lessons in what it takes to make the postseason.
Honestly, if the Detroit Red Wings are going to make the Stanley Cup playoffs, were you actually thinking they’d be doing so any other way than the path they are choosing?
I’m sure if you asked most NHL players whether they’d want to make the playoffs or miss but get better in the long run by doing so, most players would take the playoffs.
The Detroit Red Wings entered their matchup with the Carolina Hurricanes on a roll. They won six of their previous seven games entering Friday. And they had recorded at least one point in each of those seven games.

Detroit Red Wings head coach Derek Lalonde announced that forward J.T. Compher will be unavailable for tonight’s game against the Carolina Hurricanes and is listed as day-to-day.
The Detroit Red Wings announced a series of transactions on Monday, placing forwards Dylan Larkin, J.T. Compher and Klim Kostin on Injury Reserve (IR).
The Detroit Red Wings made a series of roster moves Monday.
When Steve Yzerman took over as general manager of the Detroit Red Wings in 2019, the team was in disarray. Coming off a second straight missed postseason, Detroit’s cupboard was bare of talented playmakers, and the future looked dim.
Last night we circled our two favorite spots, and attacked them with some aggressive combo bets. That paid off big-time, so we're maintaining our aggressive approach tonight.
When Detroit Red Wings coach Derek Lalonde talks about what the team is getting from center J.T. Compher, the descriptive he likes to use is “as advertised.” “Very good player,” Lalonde said.
Let's take a look at some of the worst contracts handed out so far in free agency.
Much like rapper Drake, new Detroit Red Wings forward J.T. Compher knows all about coming from the bottom and getting to the top. When he made his NHL debut with the Colorado Avalanche in 2016-17, things were pretty bleak.
The Detroit Red Wings have made a significant addition to their lineup by signing forward J.T. Compher to a five-year contract with an average annual value (AAV) of $5.1 million.
Compher spent the 2022-23 season with the Colorado Avalanche, where he registered a career-high 17 goals, and 35 assists for 52 points in 82 games.
Just a year after signing Andrew Copp to a significant free-agent deal, the Detroit Red Wings have added another center.
The Chicago Blackhawks have been a busy bunch over the last week, acquiring Taylor Hall, Corey Perry, and Nick Foligno while also drafting the first-overall pick, Connor Bedard.
The J.T. Compher era in Colorado appears to be coming to an end. With the acquisition of Ross Colton, the Colorado Avalanche appear set down the middle.
The Chicago Blackhawks are two days away from drafting one center, Connor Bedard, to help with the team’s scoring in the future. Another free agent center is reportedly interested in signing with the Blackhawks this offseason.
One would think that the acquisition of Ryan Johansen on Saturday would indicate that J.T. Compher‘s days with the Colorado Avalanche are numbered, but the team isn’t ready to move on just yet.
It is popular opinion right now, no matter where you look, that Colorado Avalanche forward J.T. Compher is expected to be a hot commodity if he hits the market on July 1.
J.T. Compher will become an unrestricted free agent (UFA) this summer, giving the Colorado Avalanche some tough decisions to make. They are in desperate need of a second-line center, with few available on the market.
We had ourselves a nice Tuesday here on the ice, and the best course of action is straightforward: keep winning. Here's a quartet of selections worth some consideration for Wednesday in the NHL.
The 14 combined goals in the 8-6 win for the Avalanche were the second most in a conference finals game.
Tied 2-2 late in the third period, the Avalanche forward scored the go-ahead goal with six seconds left to send Colorado to the conference final for the first time since 2002.
One of the early success stories from this season is J.T. Compher, who has gone from depth center to first-line forward for the Colorado Avalanche thanks to injuries and illnesses.
