Why have 1 version of Andrew Copp when you can have 2 versions of Andrew Copp?
He’s basically Copp but not as good.
Watching them both this season I think it's obvious Compher is better than Copp, significantly so.Andrew Copp didn’t work, so let’s try again!
Exactly. People will say "it's only 19 games" but be perfectly fine with the outrageous takes after a whopping 0 games. A good start doesn't mean he'll look amazing 4 years from now, however by that point his contract will also be a much smaller % of the cap so keep that in mind.Obviously it made a lot more sense to criticize the contract before he had even played a single game.

Compher has been an excellent fit this season. On pace for 69 points (nice) so even when/if he regresses he should be good for the ~50 points we were hoping to get from him.

It’s why they didn’t try resigning him. It really is. Money.Well Compher makes 1.1m more than Ryjo, and is signed for 3 years longer than Ryjo, so not sure what your point is. Avs couldn't afford him short term or long term.
This is exactly what Compher did last year for the Avs. He played like a 2C until the trade deadline, then he completely fell off a cliff. He also disappeared in the playoffs. Maybe he can play a full season for Detroit, but he was nothing more than a disappointment for the Avs last season.
As long as he produces more than 2 points in a 7 games series while receiving close to 23 minutes a game, I'll be happy.It's better than Compher has ever done anywhere. And is not carried by Rantanen.
Good luck with your bigger disappointment Johansen on the current team.
He is producing even less than Compher after his "fell off a cliff".
Detroit 2023-24 Compher, 20 games, 4+14=17 points (0.85 ppg)
Before DL 2023 Compher, 59 games, 13+29=42 points (0.71 ppg)
After TDL 2023 Compher, 23 games, 4+6 = 10 points (0.43 ppg)
2023-24 Ryan Johansen, 20 games, 4+4 = 8 points (0.40 ppg)

...ryjo is playing in a top 6 that is massively, stupidly better than what compher is playing with...and compher is playing significantly better. Ryjo literally has Rantenan who, without looking at stats, watching his game every day like avs fans, is better than 95% of our roster without question at all. Compher get's to play with Copp and was on the PP2 unit the entire season before the last two games and our PP2 unit barely played at all...As long as he produces more than 2 points in a 7 games series while receiving close to 23 minutes a game, I'll be happy.
I guess you haven't been watching the Avs lately. Rantanen has been stapled to MacKinnon on the top line. He and Rantanen only played a few games together. Right now RyJo's line mate are Drouin and Tatar. He's also no longer on our top powerplay unit....ryjo is playing in a top 6 that is massively, stupidly better than what compher is playing with...and compher is playing significantly better.

if you're going to just hate to hate than that is one thing, but don't say stupid stuff that you think is going to be a dig when it clearly isn't.

i definitely have not been watching avs lately and I stand corrected. However, I will say that highly talented players, regardless of their position in the lineup, rubs off on the others around them, regardless of lines, so the momentum from rantanen/mack line should be carried down to the next, then carried more.I guess you haven't been watching the Avs lately.
