Bjorkqvist was recalled to the Penguins' taxi squad Tuesday.
While Bjorkqvist wasn't added to the Pens' active roster, the team may need his services against the Senators on Friday unless Dominik Simon, Evan Rodrigues or Teddy Blueger is cleared of the league's COVID-19 protocols. In 17 minor-league contests this year, the 24-year-old Bjorkqvist has tallied two goals and one assist and will likely see minimal minutes in a fourth-line role if he does play Friday.
