Compher was traded to Colorado on Friday along with Mikhail Grigorenko, Nikita Zadorov and the 31st overall pick in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft in exchange for Ryan O'Reilly and Jamie McGinnTSN's Darren Dreger reports.
Compher announced last month that he will be returning to the University of Michigan for his junior season in the fall. Long term, Compher projects as a third-line center who can help out on the penalty kill and has great leadership qualities. Colorado has arguably the worst prospect pool in the entire NHL and Compher immediately becomes ones of their brighter prospects.
