So far this season, he has one assist in 15 games. Last summer he signed an eight-year, $50 million contract.\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>He is not happy.<\/p><cite>Patrick Roy, Islanders coach<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nRoy also added that the team will have to move forward. &#8220;We can&#8217;t replace a player like him.&#8221;\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a4.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F1123%2Fr1579786_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><figcaption>El defensa de los Islanders de Nueva York, Alexander Romanov, necesit\u00f3 someterse a una cirug\u00eda de hombro tras este golpe de Mikko Rantanen de Dallas y estar\u00e1 fuera de acci\u00f3n entre cinco y seis meses.

Previously, on Sunday, he was suspended for one game following a hit on Calgary&#8217;s Matt Coronato during Saturday&#8217;s game.\n\nRoy expressed his fury after Rantanen&#8217;s hit on Romanov and yelled at the Dallas player as he headed to the locker room through a tunnel between the benches.\n\nThe Stars coach, Glen Gulutzan, defended his player, arguing that Rantanen&#8217;s skate was grazed by Islanders defenseman Scott Mayfield, causing him to raise his arms to maintain balance just before contact with Romanov.\n\nRantanen stated that he had no intention of injuring Romanov. This is his first full season with Dallas after being traded twice last season.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York Islanders defenseman Alexander Romanov will be out of action for between five and six months due to surgery on his right shoulder, the team announced on Sunday.
