Pearson notched an assist in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

Pearson had been out of the lineup for six straight games, though he was considered a healthy scratch Wednesday versus the Bruins. The 33-year-old saw just 5:43 of ice time on the fourth line, but he was able to earn his first point as a Sabre in his second game since he was traded from the Jets. Overall, he has 14 points, 52 shots on net, 69 hits, 27 PIM, 26 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 54 appearances this season.

Pearson (lower body) won't be in the lineup Wednesday versus the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

Pearson missed five straight games due to an injury. However, he is off the team's injury report, which indicates he is available to play. The 33-year-old winger is likely to fill a bottom-six role once he returns to action. His next chance to draw in is Friday versus the Red Wings.

Pearson (lower body) isn't in the lineup for Sunday's game in Anaheim, per Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News.

Pearson (lower body) isn't expected to play against the Kings on Saturday, according to Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550.

Pearson (lower body) is expected to miss Thursday's game against San Jose, per Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News.

EDGE Analysis

Pearson also missed Buffalo's previous two games. He has seven goals and 13 points in 53 outings between Winnipeg and Buffalo in 2025-26. Pearson should be in the mix for a bottom-six spot once he's healthy.

Pearson (lower body) won't suit up Tuesday versus the Golden Knights, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pearson is set to miss his second straight game due to the injury. Even once he's healthy, there's no guarantee he'll be in the lineup often. He'll have to compete for bottom-six minutes.

Pearson (lower body) has been ruled out of Saturday's clash versus Toronto, according to Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550.

Pearson (undisclosed) could be a game-time call against the Maple Leafs on Saturday, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pearson has played only once for the Sabres since he was dealt from Winnipeg at the trade deadline, picking up a minor penalty and three shots on net Thursday in a 2-1 loss to Washington. Pearson had seven goals and six assists in 52 games with the Jets this season prior to the Mar. 6 deal. Consider him day-to-day at this time.

Pearson was acquired by Buffalo from Winnipeg on Friday in exchange for a seventh-round pick, per Darren Dreger of TSN.

EDGE Analysis

Pearson has seven goals, 13 points, 25 PIM, 49 shots, 68 hits and 26 blocks in 52 outings with Winnipeg in 2025-26. Buffalo will likely use Pearson primarily as a fourth-line option, but he also might find himself spending some time as a healthy scratch, especially during times when the Sabres' forward corps is relatively healthy.

Pearson recorded two assists and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Lightning.

EDGE Analysis

Pearson has three helpers over three games in March, which follows a nine-game drought from Jan. 17 to Feb. 27. The 33-year-old winger is still in a bottom-six role, so this burst of offense may not last. He's at 13 points, 49 shots on net, 68 hits, 26 blocked shots, 25 PIM and a plus-7 rating through 52 appearances this season.
