Tanner Pearson put up an assist in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Kraken.Pearson ended his five-game point drought when he helped out on a Noah Hanifin goal in the third period. The 32-year-old Pearson has been good in a bottom-six role this season with 12 points, 37 shots on net, 41 hits, 20 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 33 outings. That production doesn't fly off the page -- Pearson's a steady winger who can add depth scoring, but his fantasy appeal is limited.

Golden Knights' Tanner Pearson: Sends helper in win
Tanner Pearson logged an assist and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Ducks.Pearson ended a four-game slump when he set up an Alexander Holtz tally in the third period. The 32-year-old Pearson won't always have consistent offense since he's in a fourth-line role. He's carved out a decent amount of production so far with 11 points, 28 shots on net, 33 hits, 17 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 27 appearances. That scoring pace would put him over the 30-point mark for the first time since 2021-22.

Golden Knights' Tanner Pearson: Tallies again Monday
Tanner Pearson scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 5-4 shootout win over the Flyers.Pearson has scored in back-to-back games, and he has three points over his last five outings. The 32-year-old winger has been a strong fit in the Vegas Golden Knights' bottom six, but that's a role that doesn't lead to the most consistent offense. For the season, he has 10 points, 23 shots on net, 29 hits and a plus-6 rating across 22 contests. Vegas is missing three of its regular forwards, but Pearson's place in the lineup should be safe even when they're all available again.

Tanner Pearson provided an assist and five hits in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Capitals.Pearson snapped a six-game slump with his helper on Brett Howden's first-period tally. The 32-year-old Pearson will have some variance on offense while filling a bottom-six role. The winger is at three goals, five assists, 18 shots on goal, 22 hits, 12 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 18 outings this season. He doesn't stand out in any area and receives no power-play time, so Pearson has limited ways to contribute in fantasy.

Golden Knights' Tanner Pearson: Two points Saturday
Tanner 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 Vegas Golden Knights likely won't lead to a resurgence. Through six games this season, he's managed three points.
