Tanner Pearson
LW - Winnipeg Jets
Next Game
Eligibility
Tanner Pearson registered his first points with Winnipeg in Monday's 5-2 victory over the Islanders, picking up a goal and an assist. The veteran forward recorded both points during the second period.
Fantasy Impact
The 33-year-old is coming off a 27-point campaign with Vegas last season and is currently skating on the Jets' fourth line. Despite the multi-point effort, Pearson's limited role and fluctuating ice time make him a non-factor in most fantasy formats for the time being. He can be left on the waiver wire.
Pearson scored a second period goal of the Canucks 5-1 win over the Golden Knights.
Fantasy Impact
Vancouver's winger ended a lengthy goalless streak with that second period tally, he's up to 34 points (14 goals, 20 assists) in 67 games this season.
Pearson added the secondary helper on the Canucks third period goal.
Fantasy Impact
Vancouver's veteran forward has 4 points (1 goal, 3 assists) in his last four games.
Tanner Pearson recorded a goal and an assist in the loss to Buffalo on Tuesday night.
Fantasy Impact
Owners need to keep an eye on Pearson. If he starts to heat up with his new team, he could warrant a pick up.
Tanner Pearson has been traded to Pittsburgh in exchange for left-winger Carl Hagelin. Their cap hits are very close and Hagelin will be an unrestricted free agent after the season.
Fantasy Impact
Pearson has topped 40 points in each of the past two seasons and is signed through 2021. Hagelin is one of the fastest players in the league and also helps with the occasional PIM.
