Big overpayment. Had a fine year based on his points. But the advanced stats shows he has a really bad impact on both offense and defense. Was among the worst offensive players on the team in the last few years stat wise. Best case scenario he develops into a good player on the 3rd line. Worst case scenario you pay 4x3.5 for a 4rd line guy. Yikes
They're the same age and Kerfoot has put up 10 more points per year since they started playing together?
Are you still basing your opinion on the fact the Compher was drafted higher than Kerfoot 6 years ago?
I'm basing it off the fact that I watch a ton of Avs hockey. Look at their playoff production. Compher can grind, play all situations, and put up points on any line. They tried Kerfoot on the first line in the playoffs when Rantanen was out and he couldn't produce. Avs kept the right player.

He missed some time and had a very close P/GP rate to Kerfoot while playing more defensive minutes (On the PK as well as even strength). He is also right handed which is a plus for the Avs and scores more goals in less toi. I'd prefer Compher over Kerfoot too
