Center JT Compher comes off as super-cool. Maybe it’s the way his face doesn’t show any expression. Could be because of the unusual combination of ginger-blond hair and brown eyes. He is going into his senior year at college, so that might have something to do with it. Might be because he says “cool” a lot. Whatever the explanation, Joseph Taylor Compher has a cool aura about him.
Compher came to the Colorado Avalanche as part of the trade that sent center Ryan O’Reilly and winger Jamie McGinn to the Buffalo Sabres. It most certainly wasn’t the most-heralded part of the trade, not even on the side of Avs’ acquisitions.
