Then they added Tanner Pearson from the Jets again, just for a seventh round pick next year. These moves bring grit and playoff know-how to the roster. Shen has 58 postseason games and two Stanley cups from Tampa Bay. Stanley has 17 playoff outings, Pearson has 59, with solid points from his Kings Cup
