With the recent addition of Ryan Johansen, the Avs have a bit of a jam in the center position.
They have a lot of them, and at least one of those is expected to be leaving the team: JT Compher.
Chicago Eyeing Compher
Compher, who'll be officially UFA on July 1st, has shown interest to the Chicago Blackhawks.
Per Jay Zawaski:
"I'm told there is mutual interest between the Blackhawks and free agent forward JT Compher. Compher has a lot of interest around the league."
However, it's not a sure thing for Chicago, as he's generated a lot of interest in the League.

The Hawks may need to take part in a bidding war for the centerman.
But now, the Hawks have a major incentive to attract players: Connor Bedard.
