McGroarty was recalled from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Monday.

McGroarty has been lighting it up in the minors since returning from an upper-body injury, generating four goals and three assists in five minor-league games with the Baby Pens. While the 21-year-old winger could move into a top-six role for Pittsburgh, he likely will start his time with the Penguins on the third line with fellow youngster Ben Kindel.
