Habs Thoughts – Alexander Romanov



OK Guys, so in today’s Habs Thoughts video, I decided to have a little chat about Alexander Romanov, and give my thoughts on his progression through his first year in the NHL, and touch on where I think he could possibly end up next season. Romanov led the Montreal Canadiens defensemen in hits last season with 138, and was second on the entire team behind only Josh Anderson, which is a pretty good statistic to lead these days, in an era where hard hitting but also productive defensemen are hard to find. With a few defensive prospects on the rise in Montreal, I feel as if Romanov gets forgotten about at times, and in this video I also give my take on how I felt about his lack of ice time and games during the playoffs. When GM Marc Bergevin acquired Gustafsson and Merrill at the NHL trade deadline, that really put Romanov to the side at a time where I feel as if he should have been playing. Especially in this scenario up against those two particular Defensemen.

  1. Great 👍👌video junkie, I totally agree . I do however think down the road Romanov, and Gule may be the future first liners . Keep up the great vids . 👍That's my opinion for what it's worth ,and I don't really care if anyone likes it , we all have our right to our opinions.

  2. Love me some Romanov!!!
    I think his potential is a 2nd or 3rd defensman who plays well defensivly and can move the puck
    Him and Guhle if Romanov can do RD will be an Elite Elite Elite pair
    This is for Ducharme…
    Romanov> CHARIOT, GUSTAFSSON, KULAK, MERILL

  3. That Paul Byron Stat blew my mind, dude has got to be one of the hardest working players I know. Sucks his whole career has been plagued with injuries, could have easily been a top 6 if he didn't get such shit luck.

  4. Kulak-Romanov was the best D-pair all season long.
    Of course they didn't go up against the toughest opponents but at least you could play them fokin together… unlike Merill-Gustafson, lol!
    (Worst deadline pickups since Dwight King and Martinsen)
