Vrana was recalled from AHL Hershey on Tuesday, Tarik El-Bashir of CSN Mid-Atlantic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Capitals could be without T.J. Oshie (upper body) and Andre Burakovsky (hand) for Tuesday's game against the Rangers, so Vrana and Riley Barber will rejoin the parent club in order to restore some depth at forward for the time being. Vrana, the 13th overall pick in 2014, has an impressive pedigree, but he's yet to claim a full-time role at the NHL level. He's made 12 appearances with the Capitals on the season, supplying one goal and two assists across an average of 11:45 in ice time.
