Tanner Pearson Replaces Alex Iafallo On Kings First Line
7 years agoLos Angeles Kings left wing Tanner Pearson looks set to replace Alex Iafallo on the team's first line in Game 2 against Vegas on Friday. Iafallo logged just a bit over 10 minutes in Game 1 after returning from an upper-body injury and it's possible that he still isn't fully healthy. He will likely miss Game 2 after not taking part in the morning skate. Pearson, who was on third-line duty on Wednesday, gets a nice bump in fantasy value, as everybody seems to produce points on Anze Kopitar's line. However, Pearson is currently in a dry spell, having finished pointless in six of the last seven games. With that said, he's still an under-the-radar DFS option on Friday night.
