Robinson has split time this season between the Blue Jackets and their AHL affiliate, the Cleveland Monsters. In seven games with the Blue Jackets, he's recorded one goal, while in nine games for the Monsters, the Bellmawr, New Jersey native has four points (one goal, three assists).
Meanwhile, according to Brian Hedger, it appears that Blue Jackets forward Emil Bemstrom, who's been in the AHL, is looking for a change of scenery. It's unclear however if he'll be involved in this deal with Buffalo.
