[mariolemieux66]

Romanov looks really good. He should he a beast in a couple of years.

He is already a beast!!

 

[Montreal Impact FC]

he plays like a beast only thing he needs to work on are his deep pinch into the offense its all fine once in a while.but once it tuens into a goal Claude wont appreciate it as much. he needs to make sure someone is there to cover his ass. but its been mostly the case.

he has been pretry amazing so far. and already building a bro love with Carey.. I mean who would like that nice smile Romy has.. he is an honest player that plays all in and at his best of his capacity. I think the players know it. he doesnt cheat much.

its very very early but we know already wr have a elite player in the making.

Romanov looks really good. He should he a beast in a couple of years.

Why would he regress??

 

[Kimota]

He is so damn confident for his age.

 

[Goldenhands]

How the hell did this guy fall into the 2nd. Maybe his agent was right about where he should have been drafted.


Been a while since Timmins stole a player. Like, 10 years (Gallagher).

When was the last Russian D prospect not playing in the CHL that went as high as Romanov in a draft?

We are seeing a trend with Sergachev, Chayka, Samorukov, Alexeev ect in the last few years that comes to the CHL to develop properly in order to make the CHL, but Romanov was drafted straight from Russia...

When was the last Russian D prospect not playing in the CHL that went as high as Romanov in a draft?

Very true. Which basically echoes what his agent was saying.

Btw, all of your boys (Seider, Miller, ect) we doing well.

 

[Canadienna]

One of the things I like most of the 8.5 periods I've seen of him in the NHL is how hard he works to fix any mistakes.

He's been great transitionally and offensively, and even generally in his own zone. But he's had a few mistakes that could have been bad. On each occasion he's gone full super sayan and worked his butt off to kill the play.

It's a good quality to have that a few others in the league have also.

 

[Dutronc]

Was not a fan of Trevor but what a steal this guy is!! Chapeau TT!

 

[Goldenhands]

Very true. Which basically echoes what his agent was saying.

Btw, all of your boys (Seider, Miller, ect) we doing well.

Yep Miller playing as a 20 yrd on the RAGS, while Bode Wilde is nowhere to be found...

 

[Captain97]

Romanov needs to increase the flex on his stick.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

I saw all the hype before camp and tried to temper expectations, but he’s exceeded all expectations I had so far. He looks so confident and already brings such an important element back there that we needed. Kid is a stud.

 

[The Great Weal]

Some people look at the stats sheet too much...

Inconsistent ice time in a mens league is hard to evaluate

 

[Sagikev]

His puck skills are superior than what I thought/what I saw from the limited viewings I had of him. He's also willing to shoot the puck a lot and seems to find good shooting lanes so far. Really impressed with his game with the puck, I didn't have any expectations tbh but I'm still surprised.

 

[crosbyshow]

I repeat what I wrote already..

Romanov will be a fan favorite early on because of his:

Grit
Great gap
Mobility
Charisma
Speed.
Attitude

He is the kind of player that the puck always find him.

In a normal season of 82 games..he would start on the third pair but finish with Weber.

That was my take on him over a month ago

 

[Mike Hasselhoffman]

Romanov was fantastic tonight, simply an elite player in the making

 

[V13]

I don't care what anyone says but Romanov has been our second best D after Petry this year. Yes better than Weber

This guy is the future backbone of our D corps. Hell i say future but he kind of already is right now lol

 

[BehindTheTimes]

Looking good, if he continues this he will be on the top pair before the halfway mark like I said before the season began. Kids got composure and swag. Love him.

 

[Yarice]

I had really high expectations on Romanov at the beginning of the year, but he is playing even better than I thought he would. I love to watch him play, and to me, sky is the limit with him.

Will probably be my favourite habs player for a loooong time (Even if I also love Suzuki)

 

[Matthew McConaughay]

Romanov is perfect for us, a mix of Markov and Emelin.

 

[angusyoung]

Congrats Alex!

 

[Runner77]

I know Romanov's first NHL goal was already posted by our quick draw gunslinger @sandviper in this thread, so here's a different version:

 

[HuGo Burner Acc]

I'm happy that I don't feel like an idiot for thinking he has 1st pair potential over a year ago

 

[Jabba11]

Romanov was drafted by us. Therefore, I have to like him over Suzuki....ugh
