Islanders Place Alexander Romanov on Injured Reserve
New York Islanders defenseman Alexander Romanov (upper body) has been placed on Injured Reserve, making him ineligible for at least one week of action. He is set to miss three games after sustaining an upper-body injury in Tuesday's win over the Dallas Stars. Romanov has been a non-factor offensively this season, posting one assist in 15 appearances. However, the Islanders will definitely miss his presence on the defensive end, as Romanov shares the team lead with 31 blocks and is tied for third with 31 hits. Marshall Warren has been recalled from the minors and could make his third appearance of the season in Thursday's tilt against the Detroit Red Wings. Although Warren didn't do much in his first couple of outings, he has been hot offensively in the AHL, amassing nine points (two goals, seven assists) in 10 games.
