Kovich recorded four assists this game without doing anything fancy. One of them came from a blocked shot, another from a systemic pass, and two from forechecking and creating turnovers. Kovich looks engaged; he really works on the ice. He takes good angles to pick up rebounds and presents his stick for delaying teammates. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
