| Date | News | Advice |
|---|---|---|
| April 17, 2025 | Romanov (illness) isn't expected to play in the Islanders' season finale versus Columbus on Thursday, per Andrew Gross of Newsday. - Romanov is slated to end the campaign with four goals, 20 points, 100 shots, 147 hits and 165 blocks in 64 appearances. It's the third straight season in which he's recorded at least 20 points, though he is set to finish just below the 150-hit mark after reaching that milestone in each of his previous three campaigns. | None |
| April 15, 2025 | Romanov (illness) won't play against Washington on Tuesday, according to Andrew Gross of Newsday. - Romanov will miss at least one game but could return for Thursday's regular-season finale versus Columbus. He has registered four goals, 20 points, 100 shots on net, 165 blocked shots and 147 hits through 64 appearances this season. Scott Perunovich will replace Romanov in Tuesday's lineup. | None |
| April 6, 2025 | Romanov notched an assist, two shots on goal, two hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Capitals. - Romanov ended a 14-game point drought by helping out on the first of Marc Gatcomb's two goals. In that span, Romanov missed two contests due to an illness and racked up 39 hits and 39 blocked shots. He's remained in a top-four role despite the lack of offense -- his playing style focuses on physicality and defense more than scoring. Romanov is up to 19 points, 91 shots on net, 158 blocks, 142 hits and a plus-9 rating over 60 appearances. Were it not for injuries, he likely would have been able to surpass the 22-point total he logged in each of the previous two seasons, though he could still do it with a strong finish to 2024-25. | None |
| March 22, 2025 | Romanov (illness) will play Saturday against the Flames, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Romanov will return to action after missing two games earlier in the week. The 25-year-old blueliner has four goals and 18 points in 52 games this year. | None |
| March 20, 2025 | Romanov (illness) is set to be sidelined against Montreal on Thursday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Romanov will be shelved for his second straight game due to his lingering illness. The blueliner will have to wait at least one more game to try and break out of his seven-game pointless streak. In his stead, Adam Pelech is poised to see increased minutes on the blue line. | None |
| March 18, 2025 | Romanov is contending with an illness, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports Tuesday. - Romanov will presumably be a game-time decision for Tuesday's road game against the Penguins, as he has yet to be ruled out. New York's blue line is currently banged up -- Adam Pelech's (lower body) status for Tuesday is uncertain, and Adam Boqvist is also dealing with an illness. Romanov has contributed four goals, 18 points and a plus-9 rating across 52 appearances in 2024-25. | None |
| Feb. 27, 2025 | Romanov scored a goal in a 2-1 win over Boston on Thursday. - Romanov came out of the penalty box and broke in 2-on-1 with Jean-Gabriel Pageau, who fed the defender who beat Jeremy Swayman short side from the left circle. He has a goal in each of his last two games, and he remains on pace for a slight uptick in production over his career 22-point high. Still, Romanov isn't a volume shooter (66 in 44 games), and he delivers nothing on special teams. Any fantasy merit comes from his ability to block (114) and hit (100). | None |
| Feb. 26, 2025 | Romanov scored a goal and took three shots in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Rangers. - Romanov ended a seven-game scoring drought Tuesday, but this was the lone goal the Isles could muster in this rivalry matchup. The 25-year-old defenseman has found the back of the net three times this season, and it's worth noting each of those goals has come in his last 10 appearances. | None |
| Feb. 8, 2025 | Romanov logged an even-strength assist, three shots on goal, five blocked shots and one takeaway in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Jets. - Romanov has earned a helper in back-to-back games. He helped out on Kyle Palmieri's 15th goal of the season in the third period. Romanov has two goals and nine points over 13 games in the new year -- he had just six assists through the first three months of the campaign. The left-shot blueliner makes for an interesting add in most formats, especially now that he's paired with the offensively-minded Tony DeAngelo. Romanov will look to extend his point streak to three games Saturday in Minnesota. | None |
| Feb. 4, 2025 | Romanov logged an assist, four blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Golden Knights. - Romanov had gone three games without a point, but he has logged at least four blocks in five straight contests. The 25-year-old defenseman also hasn't been completely devoid of offense lately, earning eight points over 12 outings since the start of January. He's seeing top-pairing minutes and always brings physicality. He's at 14 points, 56 shots on net, 99 blocks, 95 hits and a plus-9 rating through 39 contests this season. | None |
| Jan. 29, 2025 | Romanov scored a goal on five shots, added six hits and blocked four shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche. - Romanov is in position to play a large role while Noah Dobson (lower body) and Ryan Pulock (upper body) are out. This was Romanov's third straight game on the scoresheet (two goals, two assists), and he also provides ample physicality. For the season, the 25-year-old blueliner has 13 points, 49 shots on net, 92 hits, 82 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating over 35 appearances. Despite missing 14 contests due to various injuries, Romanov still has a reasonable chance of surpassing the 22 points he put up in each of the last two campaigns. | None |
| Jan. 25, 2025 | Romanov logged an assist, seven hits and four blocked shots in Friday's 3-1 win over the Flyers. - Romanov has played the last three games while still shaking off a lingering upper-body injury. It didn't seem to be bothering him much Friday as he played in a physical contest, which may have had a bit more intensity after the previous game between the Islanders and Flyers on Jan. 16 had some ugly moments. Romanov now has 10 assists, 40 shots on net, 77 blocked shots, 82 hits and a plus-4 rating over 33 appearances. | None |
| Jan. 20, 2025 | Romanov (upper body) is considered a game-time decision for Monday's matchup against the Blue Jackets, but head coach Patrick Roy expects him to play, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Romanov was also a game-time decision for Saturday's matchup against the Sharks, but he returned from a three-game absence and recorded five blocked shots and two hits in 23:26 of ice time. He participated in Monday's morning skate, so he appears to be trending in the right direction and will likely be available for a second consecutive game. | None |
| Jan. 18, 2025 | Romanov (upper body) will be a game-time decision versus San Jose on Saturday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports. - Romanov has missed three games since he was hurt in Vegas on Jan. 9. Romanov has nine assists in 30 games, including three helpers in his last two games. Should Romanov return to the lineup, Isaiah George could be a healthy scratch. | None |
| Jan. 16, 2025 | Romanov (upper body) will not be in action against the Flyers on Thursday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports. - Romanov will miss his third consecutive contest due to his lingering upper-body issue. Prior to getting hurt, the 25-year-old blueliner was offering plenty of offensive upside with seven points -- all assists -- over his last eight outings. Once Romanov is given the all-clear, Dennis Cholowski will likely find himself relegated to the press box as a healthy scratch. | None |
| Jan. 13, 2025 | Romanov (upper body) didn't practice Monday and is unlikely to play in Tuesday's matchup versus Ottawa, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports. - Romanov is day-to-day and will presumably miss his second straight game. The Islanders may get Isaiah George (upper body) back in the lineup versus the Senators after he was a full participant in Monday's practice. Romanov has nine assists, 40 shots on goal, 65 blocked shots and 73 hits across 30 appearances this season. | None |
| Jan. 11, 2025 | Romanov (undisclosed), who left the morning skate early, will be a game-time decision for Saturday's tilt against Utah, per Andrew Gross of Newsday. - The 25-year-old blueliner has nine assists, 73 hits and 65 blocks in 30 appearances in 2024-25. If Romanov can't play, Grant Hutton will probably draw into the lineup after spending the Islanders' past four games as a healthy scratch. | None |
| Jan. 9, 2025 | Romanov notched two assists, two hits and a plus-3 rating in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Golden Knights. - Romanov has stepped it up on offense with seven assists over his last eight contests. He helped out on second-period tallies by Brock Nelson and Bo Horvat in this game. For the season, Romanov has contributed nine assists, 40 shots on net, 73 hits, 65 blocked shots, 18 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 30 appearances. | None |
| Jan. 6, 2025 | Romanov notched an assist, three shots on goal and six blocked shots in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Bruins. - Romanov has picked up the pace on offense with five assists over his last seven outings. The 25-year-old is firmly in a top-four role, but typically more for his defensive performance than his scoring. Overall, the blueliner is at seven assists, 39 shots on net, 71 hits, 65 blocked shots, 18 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 29 appearances. | None |
| Dec. 28, 2024 | Romanov produced an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Penguins. - Romanov has three helpers over his last three games after going 15 contests without a point. The 24-year-old's role hasn't changed -- he's still a shutdown defenseman in a top-four spot -- but he's getting a little more luck on his side. Overall, he has five helpers, 32 shots on net, 68 hits, 54 blocked shots, 18 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 25 appearances. | None |
| Dec. 22, 2024 | Romanov notched two assists, two shots on goal, two hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Maple Leafs. - Romanov hadn't gotten on the scoresheet in his last 15 appearances, and he missed 11 games due to various injuries and illnesses. When healthy, the 24-year-old defenseman has played in his usual top-four role. He has four assists, 27 shots on net, 66 hits, 51 blocked shots, 16 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 23 outings. Romanov is valued for his physical play more than his offense, so he can still help in deeper fantasy formats. | None |
| Nov. 27, 2024 | Romanov (illness) is set to play Wednesday versus Boston, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com. - Romanov, who missed Monday's 4-2 loss to Detroit, is projected to skate alongside Noah Dobson on the first pairing. The 24-year-old Romanov has two assists, eight PIM, 31 hits and 27 blocks in 11 outings in 2024-25. | None |
| Nov. 25, 2024 | Romanov will miss Monday's home game versus Detroit due to an illness, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports. - Romanov will miss his 11th game of the 2024-25 campaign. The left-shot blueliner will be replaced in the lineup Monday by Grant Hutton, and Scott Mayfield will move up to the top pair alongside Noah Dobson. The Islanders host the Bruins on Wednesday, so expect an update on Romanov's status to surface before then. | None |
| Nov. 19, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) will play against Calgary on Tuesday, per Andrew Gross of Newsday. - Romanov has made only one appearance in the Islanders' last 11 games and missed seven straight outings. However, he will return to the top pairing versus the Flames. Romanov has two assists, 10 shots on goal, 21 blocked shots and 16 hits in eight games this season. He will replace Grant Hutton in Tuesday's lineup. | None |
| Nov. 18, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) will be a game-time decision versus the Flames on Tuesday. - Romanov hasn't played since Nov. 1 versus Buffalo, a stretch of seven games on the shelf due to his upper-body injury. With Mike Reilly (chest) out indefinitely and Adam Pelech (jaw) yet to resume skating, the Islanders would certainly benefit from getting the 24-year-old Romanov back into the lineup. | None |
| Nov. 16, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) will not be in the lineup in Seattle on Saturday, according to Stefen Rosner of NHL.com. - Romanov will sit out his seventh consecutive game. The defenseman has yet to practice with full contact since he last played Nov. 1. Romanov has two assists, 16 hits and 21 blocked shots in eight games in 2024-25. | None |
| Nov. 14, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) is traveling with the Islanders but remains in a non-contact sweater, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports Thursday. - Romanov will have three more opportunities to return during the team's road trip, starting with Saturday's clash with Seattle. The 24-year-old defenseman has logged just one game in the team's last nine contests, registering two hits, two blocks and a plus-1 rating in 23:52 of ice time. Grant Hutton figures to continue featuring on the blue line with Romanov on the shelf. | None |
| Nov. 12, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) won't play Tuesday versus Edmonton, according to Stefen Rosner of NHL.com. - Romanov participated in Tuesday's morning skate but hasn't been cleared for contact yet. He will miss his fifth straight game. Romanov has accounted for two assists, 10 shots on net, 21 blocked shots and 16 hits across eight appearances this season. During Romanov's absence, Isaiah George has been holding down a spot on the Islanders' top pairing for the last two games. | None |
| Nov. 9, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) will not play versus New Jersey on Saturday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Romanov will miss his fourth straight game and seventh in the last eight but skated on his own Saturday. Romanov will accompany the team on a five-game road trip, which begins Tuesday in Edmonton. He has two assists, 16 hits and 21 blocked shots in eight games this season. | None |
| Nov. 7, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) was not on the ice for Thursday's game-day skate and won't be in the lineup versus Ottawa, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Romanov's absence, along with that of Mike Reilly (concussion), will see Isaiah George continue filling a spot on the blue line -- this time alongside Noah Dobson on the top pairing. For his part, Romanov has played in just one of the Isles' last seven contests due to his upper-body concerns. If he doesn't get back in the lineup soon, Romanov could miss the 20-point threshold for the first time in three years. | None |
| Nov. 5, 2024 | Romanov won't play Tuesday versus Pittsburgh, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports. - Romanov remains day-to-day and will miss his second straight game. He has provided two assists, 10 shots on goal, 21 blocked shots and 16 hits across eight appearances this season. Following his recall from AHL Bridgeport on Tuesday, Isaiah George will make his NHL debut versus the Penguins because of injuries to blueliners Romanov, Adam Pelech (jaw) and Mike Reilly (upper body). | None |
| Nov. 4, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) is still day-to-day ahead of Tuesday's clash with the Penguins, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports. - Romanov's spot in the lineup at practice Monday was being filled by forward Matt Martin, which would seem to indicate that the 24-year-old blueliner will be healthy in time to suit up against Pittsburgh. Still, Romanov has played in just one of the Islanders' last five games as he works his way through this upper-body issue. | None |
| Nov. 3, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) won't play Sunday against the Rangers, according to Stefen Rosner of NHL.com. - Despite missing Saturday's practice, Romanov was initially expected to play in Sunday's game. However, that won't be the case, and he's day-to-day. With Romanov, Adam Pelech (jaw) and Mike Reilly (upper body) unavailable, Dennis Cholowski, Grant Hutton and Samuel Bolduc will play against the Rangers. | None |
| Nov. 2, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) is considered day-to-day, the Islanders announced Saturday. - The Islanders were already missing defensemen Adam Pelech (jaw) and Mike Reilly (upper body). If Romanov can't suit up Sunday versus the Rangers, either Samuel Bolduc or Grant Hutton -- both of whom were recalled from AHL Bridgeport on Saturday -- would likely enter the lineup. | None |
| Nov. 1, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) will be a game-time call versus the Sabres on Friday, though coach Patrick Roy expects the blueliner to play, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com. - Romanov will be back in action after missing the previous three contests due to his upper-body injury -- assuming he is given the all-clear as expected. While the 24-year-old Russian offers limited offensive upside, he's never reached the 25-point mark in his five-year NHL career, he does provide category coverage in hits and blocks, racking up 14 and 19, respectively, in seven games this year. | None |
| Oct. 30, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) will not be in action for Wednesday's matchup with the Blue Jackets, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Romanov will be on the shelf for his third straight game due to his lingering upper-body issue. Prior to getting hurt, the 24-year-old blueliner has registered just two helpers through seven outings and has yet to find the back of the net this season. Despite the slow start, Romanov should be capable of reaching the 20-point threshold for the third consecutive campaign assuming he is able to return to action sooner rather than later. | None |
| Oct. 29, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) will not suit up for Tuesday's home matchup versus Anaheim, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports. - Romanov is day-to-day ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Columbus, and head coach Patrick Roy said the left-shot blueliner has not suffered a setback. Dennis Cholowski will continue to slot in on the third defense pair while Romanov is sidelined. Romanov has provided two assists, 10 shots, 14 hits and 19 blocks through seven outings. | None |
| Oct. 26, 2024 | Romanov (upper body) won't play Saturday against Florida, per Andrew Gross of Newsday. - Romanov had one assist, five hits and three blocked shots in 21:51 of ice time in Friday's 4-3 overtime win over New Jersey. He received a hard hit from Kurtis MacDermid in the game and will miss at least one outing. Dennis Cholowski will probably replace Romanov in Saturday's lineup. | None |
| Oct. 25, 2024 | Romanov notched an assist, five hits and three blocked shots in Friday's 4-3 overtime win over the Devils. - Romanov was bloodied by a high hit at one point in the game, but he didn't miss a shift and answered with toughness instead. The 24-year-old defenseman's helper came when Kyle Palmieri tipped in his shot at 11:28 of the second period. Romanov has two assists, 14 hits, 19 blocked shots, 10 shots on goal and six PIM through seven outings this season. He remains in a top-four role, but he's unlikely to chip in much more than 20-25 points. | None |
| Oct. 15, 2024 | Romanov provided an assist, five hits, six blocked shots and two PIM in Monday's 6-2 win over the Avalanche. - Romanov took a physical toll on the Avalanche, leading all skaters in the game in hits and blocks. The 24-year-old defenseman's physicality is his bread and butter -- he has seven hits and 14 blocks to go with six shots on net, four PIM and a minus-2 rating through three contests. He'll continue to be a physical force as the stay-at-home half of a pairing with the more offensively-talented Noah Dobson. | None |
| April 20, 2024 | Romanov posted an assist in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Hurricanes in Game 1. - Romanov has earned six helpers over 10 contests since the start of April. The 24-year-old defenseman matched his career high with 22 points during the regular season, adding 157 hits, 171 blocked shots and a plus-23 rating in a top-four role. He's unlikely to put up gaudy scoring numbers, but he can be useful in fantasy formats that reward his physical play. | None |
| April 6, 2024 | Romanov posted an assist, three hits and four blocked shots in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Predators. - Romanov has four helpers over four contests in April. The 24-year-old defenseman has picked up 21 points through 76 games this season, putting him one point shy of matching his output from 2022-23. He's added 113 shots on net, 140 hits, 156 blocked shots and a plus-17 rating this year while seeing steady top-four minutes. | None |
| April 5, 2024 | Romanov had a pair of assists in the Islanders 4-2 victory over Columbus on Thursday. - Romanov has three assists in his last three games. The 24-year-old blueliner has a career high seven goals this season, as well as 13 assists in 75 games. He has plenty of fantasy value with 137 hits and 152 blocked shots, if you are playing those categories. | None |
| March 7, 2024 | Romanov scored a goal on four shots and blocked two shots in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Sharks. - Romanov has a goal and an assist over his last two games after posting just one goal over his previous 12 contests. The defenseman's focus is often in his own zone rather than the attacking end, but he's now posted more goals this season (seven) than in his previous three campaigns combined (six). Romanov has 16 points, a plus-17 rating, 95 shots on net, 111 hits and 132 blocked shots over 61 appearances. | None |
| Feb. 13, 2024 | Romanov (lower body) will be a game-time decision versus the Kraken on Tuesday. - If Romanov is able to go, look for him to skate on the top pairing against Seattle. The 24-year-old blueliner has collected 13 points, 74 hits and 109 blocks through 51 contests this season. | None |
| Feb. 10, 2024 | Romanov (lower body) won't play Saturday against Calgary, according to Andrew Gross of Newsday. - Romanov has contributed five goals, 13 points, 81 shots on net, 109 blocked shots and 82 hits across 51 outings this campaign. He will be replaced in the lineup Saturday by Sebastian Aho. Romanov is considered day-to-day ahead of Tuesday's matchup versus Seattle. | None |
| Jan. 22, 2024 | Romanov scored a goal on two shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime victory over the Stars. - Romanov opened the scoring 2:52 into the first period, firing a wrister past Scott Wedgewood off the rush to give the Isles an early 1-0 lead. The 24-year-old blueliner now has points in back-to-back games. He's up to 12 points (five goals, seven assists) with 104 blocked shots and 64 hits through 46 games this season. Romanov should continue skating on New York's top pairing while Ryan Pulock (lower body) remains sidelined. | None |
| Jan. 3, 2024 | Romanov found the back of the net in a 5-4 overtime loss to Colorado on Tuesday. - Romanov found the back of the net midway through the second period to give the Islanders a 4-3 edge. It was his third tally and ninth point in 37 contests this season. Romanov stands out in terms of hits and blocks -- he has 50 and 88, respectively, in 2023-24 -- but the 23-year-old isn't a major offensive threat, having never recorded more than 22 points in a single season. It doesn't help that Romanov gets almost no power-play ice time and is unlikely to receive a role with the man advantage over the remainder of the campaign. | None |
| Nov. 25, 2023 | Romanov ended up with two assists in Friday's 5-3 road win against the Senators. - Romanov was good for a plus-2 rating, two shots on goal and four blocked shots with three hits in 30:02 of ice time across 41 shifts. The Russian rearguard had managed just a single goal with no assists across the first 18 games. The multi-point effort was his first posting two assists against the Sabres on March 7, 2023. | None |
| Sept. 21, 2023 | Romanov (shoulder) joined the Islanders for Thursday's practice, per Andrew Gross of Newsday. - Romanov was questionable for the start of training camp after undergoing shoulder surgery during the offseason, but in the end, he was fine for Thursday's opening practice. The 23-year-old had two goals, 22 points, 43 PIM, 198 hits and 129 blocks in 76 contests in 2022-23. | None |
| Sept. 11, 2023 | Romanov (shoulder) may not be available for the start of training camp, Stefen Rosner of The Hockey News reports. - Romanov underwent offseason shoulder surgery after being injured late in the 2022-23 campaign. He hasn't been ruled out for the beginning of the season yet. Romanov compiled 22 points, 100 shots on goal, 129 blocked shots and 198 hits in 76 games last year. | None |
| June 6, 2023 | Romanov underwent surgery this offseason but is expected to be ready for training camp, Stefen Rosner of The Hockey News reports. - Romanov dealt with an upper-body injury at the tail end of the regular season and into the playoffs, though the Islanders didn't specify what surgery he had. The 23-year-old defenseman's status isn't in question as long as he recovers well over the summer. | None |
| April 21, 2023 | Romanov (upper body) was back at practice Friday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Romanov missed the last five games of the regular season, as well as the opening two games of playoffs with the injury. Romanov had two goals, 20 assists, 198 hits and 129 blocked shots in 76 games. Look for the 23-year-old to return to the lineup if he is healthy enough. | None |
| April 19, 2023 | Romanov (upper body) didn't practice with the team Wednesday and is expected to miss Game 2 versus the Hurricanes, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports. - Romanov has been sidelined since April versus the Lightning, a stretch of six games on the shelf due to his upper-body issue. Prior to getting hurt, the blueliner was stuck in a 14-game goal drought during which he managed just 19 shots while recording four helpers. Even once cleared to play, Romanov is far from a lock to retake a spot in the lineup and may still have to keep watching from the press box. | None |
| April 16, 2023 | Romanov (upper body) won't be ready for Game 1 against Carolina on Monday, Stefen Rosner of The Hockey News reports. - Romanov, who will travel with the team for the start of the series, missed the final five games of the regular season. He collected 22 points, 100 shots on goal, 129 blocked shots and 198 hits in 76 appearances during the 2022-23 campaign. With Romanov unavailable, Samuel Bolduc is expected to make his NHL playoff debut. | None |
| April 12, 2023 | Romanov (upper body) isn't expected to be available for Wednesday's game against Montreal. - Romanov hasn't been practicing with the Islanders, but he was on the ice prior to Wednesday's optional skate. He has two goals and 22 points in 76 appearances in 2022-23. The contest versus Monreal is the Islanders' regular-season finale, but Romanov might be available for the playoffs if New York is able to secure a berth. | None |
| April 10, 2023 | Romanov (upper body) hasn't resumed skating yet and isn't expected to play Monday against Washington, Stefen Rosner of The Hockey News reports. - Romanov will miss his fourth straight contest. It's unclear at this time if he will be available to play in Wednesday's regular-season finale versus Montreal. Romanov has picked up 22 points, 100 shots on goal, 129 blocked shots and 198 hits in 76 games this campaign. | None |
| April 6, 2023 | Romanov (upper body) isn't expected to play Thursday versus Tampa Bay, Stefen Rosner of The Hockey News reports. - Romanov last played Saturday and hasn't skated since, so it might still be a bit before he's ready to return. Of course, with the end of the season around the corner, there aren't many opportunities left for Romanov to play. He has two goals and 22 points in 76 contests in 2022-23. | None |
| April 2, 2023 | Romanov (upper body) won't play Sunday versus Carolina, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Romanov was injured in Saturday's 5-0 loss to the Lightning. He is listed as day-to-day. Sebastian Aho (upper body) will replace Romanov in the lineup. | None |
| March 19, 2023 | Romanov notched an assist, four blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Sharks. - Romanov set up Zach Parise's insurance goal in the third period. While Romanov has a modest three assists through seven games in March, he's added a plus-6 rating for the month. The 23-year-old defenseman is up to 21 points, a plus-11 rating, 92 shots on goal, 181 hits and 120 blocked shots through 70 outings overall, chipping in solid offense with his usual physical play. | None |
| Feb. 26, 2023 | Romanov logged a goal, two shots, and three hits in Sunday's 4-0 win over the Jets. - Romanov extended the Islanders' lead to 2-0 in the second period, firing a slapshot off the glove of David Rittich. It's Romanov's second goal of the season and his first since Dec. 22. He's up to 18 points through 62 games. While his offensive production is limited, Romanov has provided a physical presence on New York's blueline with 161 hits and 105 blocked shots. | None |
| Feb. 17, 2023 | Romanov contributed an assist, a blocked shot and four hits in Friday's 5-4 win over the Penguins. - Romanov is up to 100 blocked shots and 144 hits this season, as the second-pairing defenseman continues to mash and play fearlessly. He's also teased offensive potential based on a goal and 17 helpers through 58 games. The Isles don't use Romanov on the power play, though. | None |
| Feb. 9, 2023 | Romanov (personal) is back at practice Thursday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Romanov missed Tuesday's contest versus Seattle, the first game he has missed this season. He has a goal and 14 assists in 53 games this season with 132 hits and 98 blocked shots. Romanov should be good to go Thursday when the Islanders face Vancouver. | None |
| Feb. 7, 2023 | Romanov (personal) won't play Tuesday versus the Kraken. - Romanov's absence will open up a chance for Samuel Bolduc or Parker Wotherspoon to draw into the lineup. It's unclear if Romanov's absence will keep him out of the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Canucks. | None |
| Feb. 2, 2023 | Romanov has one goal, 14 assists and a plus-6 rating in 52 games this season. - General manager Lou Lamoriello giving up a first-round pick for those numbers is getting harder and harder to justify. Romanov may have a future as a top-three defender, but he certainly isn't there yet and offers little to no fantasy value. | None |
| Jan. 16, 2023 | Romanov notched an assist, four hits and four PIM in Monday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Capitals. - This was Romanov's third assist through eight games in January. The 23-year-old blueliner can chip in a bit of offense, but he primarily relies on physicality to make an impact. For the season, he's at a career-high 15 points with 57 shots on net, 112 hits, 83 blocked shots, 29 PIM and a plus-8 rating through 45 contests. | None |
| Dec. 22, 2022 | Romanov picked up a goal, his first of the season, and an assist in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Rangers. - Romanov picked up an assist on Anders Lee's opening tally in the first period before scoring his first goal of the season, firing a slapshot through traffic to give the Islanders a 3-2 lead in the second. The 22-year-old defenseman now has a goal and nine assists through 34 games this season while providing a physical presence with 89 hits and 72 blocked shots. | None |
| Dec. 17, 2022 | Romanov (groin) is set to play Saturday against Vegas, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Romanov exited Friday's game versus Arizona after blocking a shot. He has eight assists in 31 games while averaging 20:08 of ice time this season. He's projected to serve on a pairing with Scott Mayfield on Saturday. | None |
| Dec. 10, 2022 | Romanov was credited with a pair of assists, five shots and three hits during a 6-4 victory over the host Devils on Friday. - Romanov, who entered Friday with 25 points in 160 career games, needed only 19:51 to secure his first multi-point game since last season. The 2018 second-round draft pick earned two first-period assists on goals by Brock Nelson and Anders Lee. The helpers were Romanov's first points in nine outings. Romanov's last two-point effort developed against the Kraken on March 12. | None |
| Dec. 7, 2022 | Romanov was scoreless once again as the Islanders lost to the Blues 7-4 on Tuesday. - That makes eight straight games that Romanov has failed to put up a crooked number on the scoresheet. Romanov was also a minus-3 in the loss Tuesday but overall has a rating of plus-3 in 27 games this season. Romanov will face a challenging task to break his scoreless streak as the Isles will battle the Devils in their next game Friday. | None |
| Nov. 29, 2022 | Romanov has yet to score a goal in 23 games this season. - Romanov only had four goals in 156 career games entering this season, so it's not any shock that he isn't lighting the lamp on any consistent basis. What might be a shock to most, however, is that the Islanders were leading the league coming into Tuesday in goals from defensemen with 18. Romanov seems likely to add to that total sooner or later, as he does have 31 SOG this season. | None |
| Nov. 15, 2022 | Romanov has yet to score a goal in 17 games for his new team this season. - In this past year's draft, the Islanders gave up their first-round pick to acquire Romanov. He has provided the type of defense they were hoping for, as his rating of plus-7 attests to, but he only has four assists in those 17 games. This shouldn't come as a surprise to the Islanders, as Romanov only had three goals and 10 assists in 79 games for the Canadiens last season. | None |
| Oct. 21, 2022 | Romanov leads the team in blocked shots this season with 19 through four games. - Romanov was a controversial acquisition by the Islanders as it cost them a first-round pick in this past year's draft. Romanov is a physical defenseman, as evidenced by those blocked shots and the 11 hits he handed out in the early going this season. Offensively he is still a work in progress as he has yet to register a point and only had 13 points in 79 games for the Canadiens last season. | None |
| Oct. 9, 2022 | Romanov was fined $5,000 on Sunday for charging Rangers forward Vincent Trocheck. - The incident occurred in Saturday's preseason contest and it earned him a two-minute penalty on the play. The fine is the maximum allowable under the terms of the CBA. Romanov registered three goals, 13 points, 107 shots on net, 144 blocks and 227 hits in 79 games last season with the Canadiens. He will play in his first year as a member of the Islanders in 2022-23 following an offseason trade. | None |
| Aug. 22, 2022 | Romanov penned a three-year, $7.5 million deal with the Islanders on Monday. - With the Habs last season, Romanov tallied three goals, 10 assists and 107 shots while averaging 20:24 of ice time in his second NHL campaign. After being acquired by New York in an offseason trade, the 22-year-old defenseman should get plenty of opportunities, including potentially linking up with fellow youngster Noah Dobson on the Isles' second pairing. If Romanov does see increased minutes, and possibly a power-play role, he could be in line to challenge for the 20-point threshold. | None |
| April 24, 2022 | Romanov had one shot on net, one hit, one blocked shot and a 10-minute misconduct penalty in Saturday's 6-4 loss to Ottawa. - Montreal and Ottawa can't play a game without acrimony. A kerfuffle broke out late in the first period when Romanov and Alex Formenton each were sent off for 10 minutes. Three minor penalties were also assessed. Romanov ranks fifth on the Canadiens with 53 PIM in 76 games. | None |
| March 25, 2022 | Romanov had an assist, two shots on net, one hit and six blocked shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to Florida. - Romanov's missive from the point was tipped in by Jake Evans, giving the young defenseman five points (one goal, four assists) over the last seven contests. The scoring spree comes after a 21-game stretch of futility. Romanov led all Montreal blueliners with 22:52 TOI after top-pair defender Jeff Petry was removed due to a lower-body injury. | None |
| March 22, 2022 | Romanov had an assist, three shots on net, two hits, three blocked shots and four penalty minutes in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to Boston. - Romanov worked a give-and-go with blueline mate David Savard for the Canadiens' first goal. He also embedded himself in the Boston-Montreal rivalry by cross-checking noted villain Brad Marchand early in the first period. He picked up a tripping infraction later in the game. Romanov has four points in the last six games, but scoring is not what he brings. His 192 hits leads the Habs. | None |
| March 12, 2022 | Romanov scored a goal and added an assist in a 4-3 shootout loss to Seattle on Saturday. - The points snapped a 21-game drought. Romanov was the preseason favorite to take the giant leap forward onto the power play and help lead the Habs' blue line. That fell flat, but there's always next year (or the year after). | None |
| Jan. 13, 2022 | Romanov was not available to play against the Bruins on Wednesday and is unlikely to play Thursday against the Blackhawks, Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette reports. - Romanov was cleared to exit COVID-19 protocols earlier in the week, but his conditioning was not to the point where he could play Wednesday. He's been stranded in the U.S. after testing positive in Florida. If the defenseman can't go Thursday, Montreal's next game is Monday in Arizona, the first of a five-game swing through the western States. | None |
| Jan. 10, 2022 | Romanov exited the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Monday. - Romanov will return to practice ahead of Wednesday's game with Boston. The 22-year-old averaged 20:47 of ice time and logged four points through his last 11 appearances. He only missed one Habs contest in the league's virus protocols. | None |
| Jan. 1, 2022 | Romanov entered the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Saturday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports. - Montreal may need to recall a skater from its taxi squad to fill in against the Panthers on Saturday. Romanov will need to submit two negative COVID-19 tests before rejoining the Canadiens. | None |
| Dec. 31, 2021 | Romanov had five hits and three blocked shots over a team-high 22:02 of ice time in Thursday's 4-0 loss to Carolina. - Romanov, who played more than 20 minutes for a fourth straight game, has skated on the top pair the last two contests following the resumption of Montreal's season. Several blueline regulars are unavailable while in COVID-19 protocols, so Romanov gets a promotion. Ever since a one-game healthy scratch in early November, the Russian defenseman has been stellar on the back end, delivering 78 hits and blocking 32 shots while posting a minus-3 over 21 games. | None |
| Dec. 17, 2021 | Romanov had an assist, five hits and five blocked shots in Thursday's 3-2 shootout win over Philadelphia. - Romanov kept the play in the Flyers' end and slid a pass to Brett Kulak, whose slapshot was redirected by Artturi Lehkonen for an early 1-0 lead. Romanov leads the Habs in hits with 98, including 21 over the last four contests. | None |
| Dec. 12, 2021 | Romanov scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Blues. He added six hits, one blocked shot and finished plus-1 over 18:38 of ice time. - Romanov scored for the first time in 20 games with a rocket through a bunch of sticks and bodies. His pinch kept the puck in the St. Louis end, and he eventually finished the sequence with his second goal of the season. Romanov has five points, 33 shots on net, 18 PIM and a team-leading 88 hits over 28 games. | None |
| Nov. 28, 2021 | Romanov picked up two assists in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Penguins. - He also added four shots, four hits and a plus-2 rating to his ledger. The performance snapped a streak of 12 straight games without a point for Romanov, and while the 21-year-old has plenty of skill, as yet it isn't turning into consistent production in the NHL. | None |
| Nov. 5, 2021 | Romanov returned to the lineup Thursday and had one hit over 15:38 of ice time in a 6-2 loss to the Islanders. - Dvorak was a one-game healthy scratch Tuesday, but he returned to the lineup Thursday in place of Sami Niku, who had replaced him the previous game. The 21-year-old Russian, who was scratched for poor positioning, was the lone Montreal blueliner not on the ice for an Islander goal. | None |
| July 7, 2021 | Alexander Romanov had 12:43 of ice time in the Canadiens' 1-0 loss to the Lightning on Wednesday. He took one shot and had a plus-minus of even for the game. | None |
| July 5, 2021 | Alexander Romanov scored one goal in 12:16 of ice time in the Canadiens' 3-2 win over the Lightning on Monday. He took one shot and had a plus-minus of even for the game. Romanov now has one goal on the season. | None |
| June 14, 2021 | Alexander Romanov had 15:11 of ice time in the Canadiens' 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights on Monday. He didn't take a shot and had a plus-minus of -2 for the game. | None |

| 2025-03-18 | analysis | Romanov will presumably be a game-time decision for Tuesday's road game against the Penguins, as he has yet to be ruled out. New York's blue line is currently banged up -- Adam Pelech's (lower body) status for Tuesday is uncertain, and Adam Boqvist is also dealing with an illness. Romanov has contributed four goals, 18 points and a plus-9 rating across 52 appearances in 2024-25. | Romanov is currently mired in a seven-game pointless streak during which he registered 10 shots, 19 hits and 21 blocks while averaging 22:06 of ice time. Given his offensive limitations, the 25-year-old defenseman is unlikely to offer much in the way of fantasy value except in banger leagues. Adam Pelech (lower body) will rejoin the lineup with Romanov on the shelf. |

| 2025-02-28 | analysis | Romanov came out of the penalty box and broke in 2-on-1 with Jean-Gabriel Pageau, who fed the defender who beat Jeremy Swayman short side from the left circle.

Still, Romanov isn't a volume shooter (66 in 44 games), and he delivers nothing on special teams. Any fanta | |
