Avs forward J.T. Compher has familiar workout partner — his sister — during coronavirus pandemic

Avalanche forward J.T. Compher has been working out with a familiar face while hunkered down with family at their Chicago-area home during the coronavirus pandemic.

And she isn’t too bad herself: Boston University All-American Jesse Compher, who just so happens to be J.T.’s sister.

“We still can’t skate, but we’re doing similar to what we do in the summer — off-ice training and keeping the conditioning up, obviously, because we don’t know when the next time we’ll be playing,” Compher told The Post in a phone interview Tuesday. “Just trying to stay as ready as possible.”

With all of the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 crisis, that’s just about all the Comphers can do these days — outside of hoping for a return to normal and the resumption of the NHL season.
