cdgraham Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 (edited) Sorry if this should be somewhere else but mods can move it to correct place if needed. Anyways, with the emergence of the chemistry between hoglander and horvat, with Pearson pretty obviously officially being the passenger on that line if he is on it, as well as Rutherford taking over (who has already traded Pearson for a bag of pucks once before and will probably be looking for a shakeup) + the fact it actually probably makes sense if we can get a faster replacement with equal skills or a defenseman (especially with the recent injuries) Anyone see this happening? Events could be lining up for him to be saying bye prior to the trade deadline or at the trade deadline. Also, if he is to be traded, what do we think his value is?

Probably doesn't have any trade value imo. 10-15 goal guy, not a penalty killer, pretty expensive contract. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya was thinking he might have completely neutral or even negative e value. But there are probably gms who value him a bit still, and if we can find an equivalent value player but for defense I'd rather have 3 million on that player then Pearson I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post VancouverHabitant Posted December 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 13, 2021 Guys that have the same playstyle/skillset as Tanner Pearson are criminally underrated by fans. It's why you see fans craping on Alex Chiasson all the time. Standing in front of the net is necessary, and someone has to do it. It doesn't look pretty and 91 out of 100 times it results into nothing, but you still have to keep on doing it. It's one of the toughest and most thankless jobs in hockey. I constantly see people suggesting that we swap out Pearson and Chiasson for different net-front guys and it just doesn't work in real life. I can't tell you how many times you see guys like Boeser, Hoggy and others either late to get to the front of the net or else just doing a fly-by. 3 1 8 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post J-Dizzle Posted December 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 13, 2021 Good veteran player, been there/done that guy who can play middle six pretty competently. Doubt he has a ton of value on the trade market, but he’s not an anchor. 2 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdgraham Posted December 13, 2021 Author Share Posted December 13, 2021 To clarify btw I'm not actively suggesting we trade him and I actually don't mind it if we keep him. I just think despite that he may get shipped out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilight Sparkle Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 probably will end up on waivers if anything. he adds very little, to nothing on this team-- just a guy plugged in to a role 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outsiders Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Rutherford has already traded him once. However, Pearson might be hard to trade this season as he has a full NTC and next season goes to MNC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then to discuss how we feel about it or what we would be happy he got moved for if he got moved etc. So I'm sure you can contribute more then that!

D.B Cooper Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Seeing as he is in the first year of a new contract with a full NTC……. I’m gonna guess he ain’t leaving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a bad player and but he's just not scoring enough to be a 2nd line winger. Definitely like him otherwise as a third-line guy that can provide scoring. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a middle 6 guy, playing at a middle 6 level, who's paid middle 6 money He's far from exciting, but he's a solid, complimentary, two way veteran, who does a lot of little things this roster needs. The amount of whinging about him on here is ridiculous. Guys like Pearson aren't the "problem". 3 10 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
