Scouting Report
Plays a similarly aggressive game like his father, former NHL winger Andrei Kovalenko. Unfortunately, he does not have as much bulk as his dad. That said, he skates well and plays with an in-your-face attitude. Forechecks very well and can produce offense in a supporting role. Can play on either side of center, too.
Long Range Potential: Abrasive but talented winger.
