Pearson scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Kings. Pearson scored for the second time in the last three games when he got the Golden Knights on the board at 14:58 of the second period. The winger has been limited to middle-six duties, but he's done fairly well in that role so far. Pearson is at three goals, seven points, 11 shots on net, 12 hits and a plus-7 rating over 11 appearances. He's already over halfway to matching the 13-point campaign he produced over 54 games with the Canadiens in 2023-24.

Pearson scored a goal on two shots, added two hits, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 7-3 win over the Sharks. Pearson has two goals and three assists over his last four games. The 32-year-old winger remains in a bottom-six role, but he could get a boost in the quality of his linemates now that William Karlsson is healthy and playing on the third line. Pearson has six points, nine shots on net, nine hits and a plus-5 rating over nine appearances. He's a points-only option for fantasy managers in deeper formats.

Pearson logged two assists and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 6-4 win over the Senators. Pearson has four points over his last three games, though he remains in a bottom-six role. It's unclear how long he'll be able to sustain this burst of offense, given he's averaged 12:08 of ice time over eight contests. He has five points, seven shots on net, seven hits and a plus-3 rating this season.

Pearson scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Panthers. The veteran winger opened the scoring with 33 seconds left in the first period, turning a defensive-zone breakdown by Florida into his first goal of the season. Pearson hasn't been much of a fantasy asset in recent years -- he hasn't posted a 20-goal season since 2019-20 with the Canucks -- and his middle-six role with the Golden Knights likely won't lead to a resurgence. Through six games this season, he's managed three points.

Pearson signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Golden Knights on Friday. Pearson had been in training camp on a PTO, but he played well enough to earn the contract. Pearson had two goals and an assist in four preseason games. The winger spent last season with the Canadiens, scoring only five goals while adding eight assists in 54 regular-season appearances. Pearson should see action on the fourth line, when he is not a healthy scratch this season as their 13th forward.
