Jeannot has not been a prolific scorer, but could be a contributor as Kings remake their forward group.
Tampa Bay Lightning left wing Tanner Jeannot shoots during the second period of an NHL hockey game against the Anaheim Ducks, Sunday, March 24, 2024, in Anaheim, Calif. The Lightning sent Jeannot to the Kings Saturday in exchange for draft picks. The Kings have acquired forward Tanner Jeannot from the Tampa Bay Lightning in exchange for a 2025 second-round draft pick and a fourth rounder in this year’s draft.
Jeannot compiled just one goal and three assists in 20 games down 2023’s stretch and only 14 points in 55 games last year to go with a minus-10 rating. Aside from his first full season in Nashville and a quarter season with the American Hockey League’s Chicago Wolves, Jeannot has not been a prolific scorer. At 6-foot-2 and 220 pounds, Jeannot could join the Kings’ top-nine forward group, where he will be expected to bang bodies, carve out space for his linemates and play in more of a peripheral offensive role than another former Predator, Viktor Arvidsson, whose return to the Kings appears in doubt.
“I was solid all year, I gave my team a chance to win and, as a goalie, that’s all you can do,” George told the OHL’s Web channel. “It was definitely a good year, I learned a lot from the older guys and got put in situations I wasn’t in before. I got to learn how to handle that and it definitely helped me develop, not only as a hockey player but as a person as well.”George has familiarity with Kings first-rounder Liam Greentree from a pair of international tournaments.
