Both guys are signed until 2021, Pearson for 3.75 AAV and Gudbranson for 4.0. Pearson is 26, Gudbranson is 27. Pearson has 15 points this season, so pretty terrible for that money, but considering how bad Gudbranson is, this seems like a decent gamble to hopefully get a 20/20 middle six guy for someone who shouldn't be in the NHL.
