Chaput was recalled to the active roster by the Penguins on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Chaput has yet to feature in a game for Pittsburgh this season, suiting up exclusively in the minors. In those 22 games with the Baby Pens, the 29-year-old center has generated two goals and seven helpers. Even if Danton Heinen (upper body) remains sidelined, Chaput is unlikely to earn a spot in the lineup versus the Capitals on Tuesday.
