Vejdemo was promoted from the taxi squad to the active roster Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Vejdemo is likely to appear in Thursday's game against Anaheim, replacing Christian Dvorak in the lineup. The 26-year-old Vejdemo has averaged 13:09 of ice time over four NHL appearances this season and his most recent NHL point was tallied in a 5-4 overtime loss to Tampa Bay on Dec. 28.

Vejdemo was assigned to the taxi squad Thursday, per CapFriendly.
EDGE Analysis
Vejdemo logged a goal in four appearances this season, but the Canadiens may not need him going forward as they get players back from COVID-19 protocols and injuries. The 25-year-old remains with the big club's traveling party for now as an emergency depth option.

Vejdemo scored a goal on one shot and blocked a shot in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Montreal's fourth line got the Canadiens on the board first, when Michael Pezzetta outworked several Lightning players behind the net and backhanded a pass to an uncovered Vejdemo, who didn't miss a wide-open net. It was the 25-year-old forward's second NHL goal and first of the season. He was called up prior to the NHL's pause amid a COVID-19 outbreak on the Habs' roster, and the Swede could stick around for the immediate future. As of this time, Montreal is scheduled to play road games Thursday against the Hurricanes and Saturday against the Panthers. Beyond that, the NHL postponed several home games, and the Habs will subsequently resume play Jan. 12 in Boston.

Vejdemo was waived by the Canadiens on Saturday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Assuming he passes through waivers unclaimed, Vejdemo will almost certainly be assigned to AHL Laval. The 25-year-old forward tallied 13 points in 27 games with Laval last season.

Vejdemo signed a one-year, two-way contract extension with the Canadiens on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Vejdemo spent the majority of the 2020-21 campaign with AHL Laval, picking up 13 points through 27 games, but he also spent time with Sodertalje SK of Sweden's HockeyAllsvenskan league, notching 10 points in 16 contests. The 25-year-old forward will likely spend most, if not all of the 2021-22 season in the minors.
