The Red-White-Blue has many young defensemen, so Romanov was no longer essential to the team. Arber Xhekaj is one of those who plays a similar style of play to Romanov.
You can see that both players have similar statistics, but Arber Xhekaj is taller and has more muscle mass. Xhekaj could become a more important defenseman than Romanov in the next few years, as the Canadiens' player is playing his first season in the National League and the Islanders' player is entering his third.
