The Winnipeg Jets have announced the signing of forward Tanner Pearson to a one-year contract worth $1,000,000. Pearson, a seasoned veteran at 32 years old, posted 27 points (12 goals, 15 assists) in the previous season with the Vegas Golden Knights and contributed one assist in eight playoff games. A former first-round pick by the Los Angeles Kings in the 2012 NHL Draft, Pearson has a proven track record, including a Stanley Cup victory in 2014. Throughout his career, he has recorded 312 points (150 goals, 162 assists) across 722 NHL games with multiple teams. Pearson's experience and familiarity with players like Jets alternate captain Mark Scheifele, whom he played with in junior hockey, could bolster the Jets’ offensive depth.
