Thread: Realistic Habs Lineup
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Kotkaniemi15</b></div><div>I doubt CJ will put Drouin on RW again, unless we have a bunch of injuries. He just looked too awkward there and he didn’t get any results. Most likely he switches with Kovalchuk, which might help in that we can try out the Drouin - Kotkaniemi - Armia line that worked out fairly well at the start of last season.

I personally believe the habs would rather have Evans play the majority of the games as the 4C, so I don’t think they’ll bring Thompson back. And I don’t love the Domi contract for the habs. The AAV is fine, but you’re just allowing him to become a UFA at age 28, at the same time that we need to sign Ylönen, Romanov, (and maybe Caufield). I’d rather either do a 1 year deal, or go 5-6 years.

Everything else looks good.</div></div>

I really don't think Domi takes a one year deal and think it would be dumb to give him 5-6 rn considering he had one really good year and hasn't shown the same consistency now.

Thread: regular season with romanov
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>firezfurx</b></div><div>You realize he didn't score a single goal in the KHL this year? Some shot huh. Lehtonen, the best OFD to ever go from the KHL to NHL is projected to get sub 30 this year.
He is not going to get PP time, since you would have to cut Petry or Weber. He will spend hours on that PK though, which is his specialty.

I'm not saying he's bad. Manson is considered very good and he doesn't score goals, right? You're not getting another Weber. Your not getting a Barrie.
Your getting a Manson. Try and get that inside your head. Toronto is getting a Severson or Risto, your getting a Manson. Manson=Severson. Please try and keep this in mind.</div></div>

Romanov has a crazy clapper. If you watched the WJC, he was their PP quarterback and can play the top of the Umbrella on the 2nd unit, with Petry on the left for the one timer. Also, I never compared Romanov to Barrie. He is much closer to Weber than Barrie.

Thread: regular season with romanov
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>firezfurx</b></div><div>Yes he's incredibly sound defensively. Knows his way around his own end well. But DFD's always have trouble with the ice change. If Lehtonen will likely spend 5-10 games in the A, so will this guy.

And what I said about 4 points is not incorrect. He had 0.16 ppg on a dominant KHL team. (And when I mean dominant they were winning 75%~ of their games) Given that you could assume on the average team (50%~ winningness, similar to MTL) he'd score about 0.11 ppg. With a 0.7 eqivalency rating from KHL to NHL and less for defencemen (0.5) that gives up a PPG of 0.05. That's 4.1 pts over a 82 game schedule.

Of course he will probs be better because of age and an offensive defencemen on his other side so maybe 10 pts?</div></div>

I think that you rely too much on stats. Romanov will probably be playing on the PP because Bergevin knows that he has that offensive upside. Also, he has a booming clapper that can go straight through the forward. I think he'll get close to 25-30 points. Maybe 7-10 goals and 15-20 assists best case scenario.
