Pearson scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Pearson tallied at 5:56 of the first period to give the Canucks a 2-0 lead that didn't hold up. The 29-year-old winger had gone nine games without a goal. He's at six points, 39 shots on net and a plus-2 rating in 15 contests this season. Despite the less-than-impressive scoring pace, Pearson continues to see mainly top-six minutes.

Pearson recorded an assist and five shots on goal in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Pearson has collected assists in each of his last two games. The winger is up to five points (one goal, four helpers), 33 shots on net, a plus-3 rating and 11 hits through 12 contests. He's shooting just three percent so far -- he shot 9.1 percent last season, and that was a fairly bad year for him, so his offense should come around eventually in 2021-22.

Pearson recorded an assist and three hits in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Pearson helped out on a Nils Hoglander goal in the second period after the two wingers were united with Bo Horvat on the top line. The 29-year-old Pearson snapped a five-game point drought with the helper. He's struggled a bit this year with one goal, three assists and 28 shots on net through 11 contests. He'll need to up the scoring pace to avoid getting shuffled down the lineup as head coach Travis Green continues to look for a way to spark his offense.

Pearson scored a goal, doled out two hits and blocked two shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Pearson got a piece of a Quinn Hughes shot and sent it past Blackhawks goalie Kevin Lankinen in the second period. The 29-year-old Pearson is on a modest three-game point streak (one goal, two helpers) after starting with two scoreless efforts this year. The winger should have 40-point potential as long as he sticks in the Canucks' top six, and he'll add moderate physicality regardless of role.

Pearson (personal) was at practice Thursday, Ben Kuzma of The Vancouver Province reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pearson missed the last game of the regular season due to a family matter, so it was unlikely it would affect him in 2021-22. The 29-year-old winger will compete for a top-six job, and he got the first look at left wing alongside Bo Horvat in Thursday's practice. Pearson was limited to 18 points with a minus-15 rating in 51 contests last season.

Pearson (personal) will not play in Wednesday's regular-season finale versus the Flames, Rick Dhaliwal of TSN 1040 Vancouver reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pearson will finish the 2020-21 campaign with 18 points, 110 shots on net and 54 hits in 51 appearances. His absence Wednesday is due to a family matter -- with no injury involved, he will likely be fine at the start of the 2021-22 campaign.

Pearson produced an assist and three hits in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Pearson set up Brock Boeser for an insurance tally at 15:35 of the third period. The 28-year-old Pearson hasn't been much of a playmaker this season -- he has only 10 goals and six assists in 44 contests despite often working in a top-six role. The winger has added 96 shots on net, 51 hits and 26 PIM this year.

Pearson scored a goal on five shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Pearson put the Canucks ahead for good at 13:45 of the third period. The winger has three goals in four games since the Canucks' season resumed. He's up to nine tallies, five assists, 84 shots on net, 41 hits and 24 PIM through 37 contests.

Pearson scored twice in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Pearson played a starring role in the Canucks' third-period rally. He put them ahead with a power-play goal at 9:48 of the frame, then added an insurance marker less than four minutes later. The 28-year-old winger has eight tallies, 13 points, 77 shots on net, 40 hits and 24 PIM through 35 outings. He's struggled to replicate his 2019-20 form, when he had 21 goals and 45 points in 69 appearances, but Pearson should continue to work in a top-six role.
