My one and only gripe about Miromanov is his acceleration/first step. He seems rather slow, and I think this is the biggest thing holding him back. Hope he can work on his explosiveness.
Other than that, especially when you take into consideration his overall NHL experience, he has been better than expected. I would say so far so good, and hopefully he comes in next season with more confidence. I think it is too early too tell if he is a top pairing material, middle pairing or bottom pairing - he does not have much NHL experience and was really coming off from injury anyway. I don't know if he has the ability to take a big step forward or not. I would just stay that so far, so good, and hopefully there is even more to come.
