Schueneman, 26, has played 18 games for the Canadiens' minor-league affiliate this season, recording two goals and five assists for seven points.
The Milford, MI native has 104 games of AHL experience over four seasons with the Rocket and the Stockton Heat, registering nine goals and 32 assists for 41 points.
Schueneman, who was never drafted, signed a two-way deal with the Canadiens in April after joining the Rocket on a one-year, one-way deal in 2020-21.
The news of Schueneman's recall comes after the team announced that defenseman Jeff Petry would not be making the trip to Nashville due to an upper-body injury.
The Canadiens face the Predators at Bridgestone Arena at 7:00 p.m. ET on Saturday.
