J.T. Compher, Michael Rasmussen playing up to Detroit Red Wings' standard at last
J.T. Compher and Michael Rasmussen are playing the way the Detroit Red Wings need.
Detroit Red Wings general manager Todd McLellan expressed optimism regarding the performances of J.T. Compher and Michael Rasmussen, stating that they have been elevating their play recently. The duo has been a part of the third line, alongside Nate Danielson or John Leonard on the right wing. Compher has scored two goals and provided two assists in his last three games, while Rasmussen has contributed one assist, primarily through screens that have denied opposing goaltenders a clear view.
Despite past criticisms and injuries impacting their effectiveness, the team believes Compher and Rasmussen have been effective players. As the Detroit Red Wings prepare for their next home game against the Vegas Golden Knights on November 5, McLellan emphasized that the team needs everyone to perform to give themselves a better chance at climbing the standings.
