Reaches 40-point mark Compher scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist, went plus-3 and blocked two shots in Friday's 5-1 win over the Jets.

Impact Compher has multiple points in each of his last three outings, picking up two goals and six assists with a plus-7 rating in that span. The 27-year-old has benefited from a small change to the Avalanche's top six, which has seen him partnered with Mikko Rantanen on the second line. Compher has a career-best 40 points (12 goals, 28 helpers), with 111 shots on net, 64 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 56 contests overall.

Leads comeback win Compher scored a goal and assisted on three others in Sunday's 6-5 overtime win over Edmonton. He added five shots on net and three blocked shots over 19:14 of ice time.

Impact Compher's second-period tally initiated Colorado's comeback from a 3-0 deficit. He also had a hand in the final three goals -- two in regulation and on Mikko Rantanen's OT-winner. Compher, a second-line center, has six points over the last two games and is averaging nearly a point per game since late December, registering 22 points over 24 contests. That's been a big help for a team whose secondary scoring has been lax.

Two-point effort against St. Louis Compher collected two assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blues.

Impact The 27-year-old had a hand in the Avs' first and last goals of the afternoon. Compher's top-six role and spot on the second power-play unit has led to five multi-point performances in the last 16 games, but only three goals and 12 points in total over that stretch as his production remains erratic. Even so, he's already put together a career-best season with 34 points (10 goals, 24 helpers) in 54 contests.

Bags two apples in win Compher had two assists, three shots on goal and three blocked shots over 21:23 of ice time in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Panthers.

Impact Compher, from behind the net, found Matt Nieto in tight quarters for Colorado's second goal then helped on Nathan MacKinnon's empty-netter. The first assist established a new career high in helpers, and the developing forward now has 22 on the campaign. Compher's 32 points overall leaves him just one short of the career high he set last season over 70 games.
