Mackcanuck Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger 19m19 minutes ago Tanner Pearson signs two year extension with LA Kings. Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger 15m15 minutes ago $1.4 per year for Pearson. He should fire his agent immediately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sestito Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 I think it's fine. If toffoli signed for that little, I'd be shocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-AJ- Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Except for his playoff run, he's unproven thus far. Solid deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 good deal for both sides. LA needs to spend cash wisely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Surfer Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Pearson looks to me like a young Alex Burrows. Maybe not so scrappy. Enough skills to co-exist with great players, speed, a tenacious game and some savvy. But its Toffoli and Carter that drive play. Thats when Pearson is on top lines. Sutter also makes him earn his time, and he has spent a lot of his year doing that! Maybe a touch cheap, but good use of a bridge deal by LA's GM.

saucypass Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Kind of crazy to think that the King's picked him 30th overall because of their cup win, only to have him help with their other cup win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMapleLaughs Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 lol way too low for himHe's trailed off a bit since his quick start this season, and this deal takes him to just 24yrs old. This is about right. Just amplifies the need for good young players in the depth pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovesLikeDatsyuk Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 More than likely took a pay cut to stay where he is. Can you blame him? 2 years from now if he is the player people think he is then im sure he will get the fat contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N7Nucks Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Solid deal for a 25-30 point young gun. In 2 years if he keeps improving he'll get another pay raise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dasein Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Being injured and not being able to showcase himself this season kind of tied Pearson's hands on being able to negotiate for a larger contract. Looks pretty good for LA, but not sure if Pearson could have done much better given the circumstances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Well they must have used living in LA as leverage. Still shocked JB couldn't leverage Tanev a discount for living in a better city and better team than LA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Mind Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Solid deal considering what he's done so far. They aren't paying him for potential, which is a method more teams should follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
