Vesey will join the Devils at training camp on a professional tryout agreement, the team announced Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
With the team also bringing in Mark Jankowski, the two players are likely competing for one spot on the 23-man roster, though New Jersey could certainly offer them both a contract. After a few decent seasons with the Rangers, the 28-year-old Vesey has struggled to produce, as he has managed just 30 points in 114 over the last two years with Buffalo, Toronto and Vancouver.

Vesey notched a shorthanded assist, two shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Sunday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Vesey helped out on J.T. Miller's shorthanded goal at 11:28 of the third period. The 27-year-old Vesey has assists in consecutive games, but he's picked up only three helpers in 18 outings with the Canucks. The Massachusetts native has 10 points, 56 shots on net and a minus-12 rating in 48 appearances overall when accounting for his time with the Maple Leafs this year.

Vesey posted an assist Saturday in a 4-1 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Vesey kept his eye on the puck for a key takeaway in the defensive zone and quickly found Travis Boyd for the score. With no goals and just two helpers through 17 games, Vesey is still trying to fit in with Vancouver; he's been on four different NHL clubs -- including his starting the year in Toronto -- and it certainly seems like the American winger would benefit from more continuity with a given organization. However, he'll likely have to hit the restart button yet again seeing as how he's a pending unrestricted free agent.

Vesey registered an assist in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Vesey ended his 16-game point drought with the assist. Coincidentally, the last time he got on the scoresheet was against the Canucks, as he scored in a 4-2 Maple Leafs win on March 6. The Massachusetts native has only eight points, 49 shots on net, 34 hits and a minus-11 rating through 43 appearances this season.

Vesey was a scratch during Saturday's win over Ottawa.
EDGE Analysis
Vesey has appeared in seven contests for Vancouver but has yet to crack the scoresheet with his new team. He played 21:50 against his former Maple Leafs, but his ice time dropped to the 13-minute mark the following two games before he sat out the next matchup.

Vesey won't play in Wednesday's game against the Senators. It's unclear as to why, but it seems likely it could be related to immigration issues given that he's an American citizen playing for a new Canadian team after leaving the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Vesey skated on the third line during warmups, but his Canucks debut will ultimately be put on hold.

Vesey will play in Wednesday's game against the Senators, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Vesey was claimed off waivers from the Maple Leafs on Wednesday, and he'll waste no time before making his Canucks debut. The 27-year-old will skate on the third line. He has registered five goals and two assists across 30 games this year.

Vesey was claimed by the Canucks off waivers Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Vesey will drive to Ottawa to join his new team Wednesday, so he'll be an option for Friday's matchup with the Flames, as he won't need to complete a mandatory quarantine. The 27-year-old winger has picked up five goals and seven points in 30 appearances with the Maple Leafs this season.

Vesey was waived by Toronto on Tuesday, Sportsnet's Chris Johnston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Vesey has appeared in all 30 of the Maple Leafs' games this season, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him remain on the active roster if he passes through waivers unclaimed. He's picked up five goals and seven points this year.

Vesey scored a pair of goals on two shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Vesey was mired in a brutal 17-game goal drought that began in late January. Coincidentally, his last goal came Jan. 22 against the Oilers. Vesey opened the scoring midway through the first period Wednesday after jumping off the bench to bury a shot from the bottom of the right circle, then he made it 2-0 early in the second on a 2-on-0 rush resulting from a poor Edmonton line change. Vesey now has four goals and two assists across 24 games.
