I remember being very impressed by a cage-wearing Voynov something like 10 years ago in one of these tournaments, and Romanov reminded of him a bit.
Who is his NHL comparable anyways? I keep hearing he's good but not specifically what he's doing that's good. Is he a two-way D or more of just an offensive D?
much better picks available at 38
not a fan

Drop the names. We will have fun in 5 years.
wilde
tychonick
anderssen
Anderssen? Who? You mean Axel Andersson? lol
yes same one on wjc team and already signed by boston
what are you 5 ?
From what I've seen so far he's got a lot more puck skills, is more mobile and a better skater but doesn't have the size/strenght Emelin has. He seems to like to lay big hits maybe that's why Timmins made the comparison with Emelin.
I've seen him quite frequently and I'd disagree with the puck skills statement. I don't think at the adult level he has plus puck skills. He's a good skater and looks on track to one day be an NHL'er, but I think from a production standpoint, he's closer to a 15pt contributor playing 2nd pairing minutes. He's more of a meat and potatoes player like an Emelin than he is a Voynov is if that makes sense.
His offensive tools don't suggest more than a 15 point NHL player, but he's a much more promising puck mover than Emelin ever was. So he could be a much better player.
You mean the same Wilde, Andersson and Tychonick not playing for their respective country in the WJC?
Seriously, your hot takes not backed up by any facts are becoming tiresome.
Much harder to crack Sweden's U20 roster as a dman than Russia's. Romanov is looking pretty good, though.I dunno but Andersson couldn't even crack Sweden's U20 roster this year.. whereas Romanov is already a top 2 defender for Russia (along with Alexeyev).
Lol give it time. It’s world juniors.Wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up better than Sandin

Sandin is producing against men in North America, Romanov is simply playing against them.
Romanov has been impressive in this kids tournament.
just dont see it, bad mix, at least not with the habs management with the semin, radulov , markov, emelin, sergachev, sherbak, galchenyuk* all of them having some recent issue/history say what you will,
russian player agents are an influential bunch these days
not a match made in heaven and pressure will be in the kid to stay in khl ( or at minimum ) bolt back...easily
A Habs fans brought up Sandin. Not Swedish fans or Leafs fans. Swing and a miss there.Classic - open up the Romanov thread - find Swedes and Leafs fans talking Sandin. ****ing classic
Sandin is playing against men because he was drafted on loan. Don't act like he is a step ahead because of a flaw in the transfer agreement.
It's tiring reading your spitballing, throw-everything-at-the-wall approach; of course, once again informed by nothing grounded in reality

He's been constantly posting about hoe Kotkaniemi will be ruined by the habs management. Now that Romanov has success, it's him. When i point out his contributions to the subject and how his opinion is not biased at all, my comments get deleted. Frustrating really.
