Michael Chaput: Signs in KHL
Chaput recently signed with Barys Astana in the KHL, per Seth Rorabaugh of TribLive.com.
Chaput recorded 33 points (12 goals, 21 assists) in 57 games last season with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. The 30-year-old Chaput has scored six goals with 16 assists in 182 career NHL contests. The move to the KHL will likely signal the end of his North American playing career.

Penguins' Michael Chaput: Brought up from minors
Chaput was recalled from AHL Wilkes-Barre.Scranton on Monday.
Chaput will be in the mix for a spot in the lineup against Boston on Tuesday after Evgeni Malkin was placed in the league's COVID-19 protocols, though youngster Valtteri Puustinen, who has been tearing it up in the minors, was called up as well. Even if Chaput does get the chance to play, it figures to be in a bottom-six role and he shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value.

Penguins' Michael Chaput: Grabs two-year pact
Chaput inked a one-year, two-way contract with Pittsburgh on Thursday.
Chaput spent most of last season on the taxi squad, as he logged just 13 games last year in which he registered three shots, 10 PIM and 19 hits while averaging 9:24 of ice time. Considering Chaput hasn't scored an NHL goal since the 2016-17 season when he was with Vancouver, he figures to be a non-factor in fantasy contests.
