"You guys tell me about him. Nobody knows much, do they? That’s good. That’s why we got him when we got him!" said Trevor Timmins on the draft floor, immediately after the pick that saw the Canadiens take Lukas Vejdemo in the third round. Timmins continued his thought, proclaiming it had been difficult to scout Vejdemo, citing the fact that he hadn’t played in any of the tournaments.
Is he a steal? Could he be a hidden gem from the draft, and for the Canadiens' future?

Somewhere south of Stockholm, Lukas had been following the draft online, and was by his own admission surprised that he was picked so early.
