Pittsburgh Penguins captain Sidney Crosby returned to the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Washington Capitals.
Head coach Mike Johnston confirmed Crosby's availability prior to the game.
The reigning Hart Trophy winner opted not to attend last weekend's All-Star festivities due to a lower-body injury and was suspended one game as a result.
He sat out Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Winnipeg Jets.
Crosby is tied for fourth in the league with 51 points.
