It seems we have another rich set of d prospects.
The first wave: Subban, McDonagh, Emelin, Y. Weber, Fischer, Carle, O'byrne, Torp ended up having a few gems.
The second wave: Tinordi, Beaulieu, Lernout, etc... were real duds.
The new wave: Juulsen, Sergachev, Mete, Brook, Fleury, Tsyka, Walford, Romanov, Harris might not have as many high end guys as the 1st wave, but may have more depth.
It's funny, Romanov was probably the most hated pick this last draft (which was fair), it's very early but right now this looks like the pick that could make Timmins look like a genius.
There's legitimate concerns about his upside, his offense so far has been lacking against better competition. However..the tools are definitely there. He's a pretty complete player from what I can see, and he already shows plenty of smarts on the defensive end. The only real question I see is whether or not he has any offensive vision.
You forgot Patch he was drafted the same year as Subban. This was a very good wave of prospects and personally i feel like we should have done better than we did with it.

He has been great in his first game against Denmark. Russia’s player of the game. Curious to see how he does tonight against the Czechs.Haven't had time to watch the WJCs yet... how's he doing there?
He was the Star, I mean Tsar... He was both!Haven't had time to watch the WJCs yet... how's he doing there?

And understandably, it had to be the most hated 'cause what's Timmins record with out of left field picks? But right now, he is the one, today, that looks the best. Now....it's mostly because he is playing great. But also because the 2 guys that should shine in Suzuki and Brook don't. Concerning? Nope. Just saying how it is right now in this tournament. Whatever that means....positively or negatively.
Haven't seen him play. Which player does he remind you of?
Kid is a player and disciplined. IMO? He’ll be as good as we allow him to be. Too much skill and discipline to project.Markov. Maybe I'm wrong.
But more realistically, you're looking at a step below that and a bit more physical.
Markov. Maybe I'm wrong.

No dman will ever be as smart as Markov for a very long timeI personally think he looks like a less skilled PK but my references are pretty habcentric.
I see him more than Markov which I don't get. Romanov has the big shot, strength/physicality and compete that PK did. I don't see Markov's playmaking or ridiculous IQ. He seems smart but not overtly cerebral like Markov.
