Alexander Romanov likely will miss the rest of the season because of a torn ACL in his right knee, the New York Islanders announced Wednesday.

The defenseman will have surgery after he was injured in the third period and missed the last 12:04 of a 5-2 loss at the New York Rangers on Tuesday. He did not have a point and was plus-2 in three games, averaging 16:34 of ice time.
