Kovacevic was added to the Jets' taxi squad Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Kovacevic has spent the past three seasons playing in the minors for AHL Manitoba for which he has registered seven goals and seven helpers in 32 games this year. Selected by the organization in the third round of the 2017 NHL Draft, the 24-year-old blueliner would be making his NHL debut if added to the active roster prior to puck drop of Tuesday's clash with Florida.

Kovacevic signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Jets on Thursday, per PuckPedia.
EDGE Analysis
The 24-year-old defenseman logged 14 points and a plus-10 rating in 29 games with AHL Manitoba. A third-round pick from 2017, Kovacevic seems to have little chance of breaking into a deep Jets blue line in 2021-22.
