They've also met Catton and Iginla twice too. Same could be said for almost every NHL scouting team that are probably meeting them too. So it really doesn't mean much.
and a Romanov type deal would be sending a young Habs D with NHL experience (so Guhle, Xhekaj, Struble, Maybe Barron since he's played over 80 NHL games) for a different positional need, to make room for another, younger, D that hasn't played in the NHL yet (Mailloux, Reinbacher, Hutson, etc.)
Habs moved Romanov because they were fully confident Guhle (who hadn't played an NHL game yet) was NHL ready. The trade was the literal definition of "selling high" too. Getting the 13th overall pick for Romanov and being able to flip it for Dach was nothing short of highway robbery.
EDIT: Apparently they met Iginla 4 times, not 2
