J.T. Compher returned to the Detroit lineup Thursday after missing seven games with an undisclosed injury and recorded an assist in the Red Wings’ 5-2 win over Vancouver. Activated from injured reserve, the 31-year-old played on the third line, providing an experienced option amid injuries to other forwards; Marco Kasper and Mason Appleton remained unavailable. Detroit also recalled goaltender Michal Postava from Grand Rapids under emergency conditions and assigned forward Sheldon Dries to the AHL, without explaining the reason for Postava’s recall.
