Robinson scored an empty-net goal on two shots and was plus-2 in a 3-0 win over the Predators on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Robinson won a race to a loose puck and found the empty net from the Nashville blue line, putting an end to his eight-game goal slump in the process. He only saw a tick under 11 minutes of ice time in his bottom-six role, but Robinson made the most of it by providing four hits in addition to his goal.

Robinson scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 2-1 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Robinson gave the Blue Jackets a 2-0 lead 3:39 into the second period, and that stood as the game-winning tally. The 25-year-old winger is up to two goals and four points through nine contests. He's added 15 shots on goal, 15 hits and a plus-2 rating while mostly working in a fourth-line role.

Robinson scored a goal and an assist in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
He also added a team-high five hits, three shots on net and a plus-2 rating to his ledger. The 25-year-old was the only Jackets player to have a multi-point afternoon, and Robinson needed to fire home an empty-net goal from just past center ice inside the final two minutes to do it. The points were his first of the season, but while the eventual arrival of Patrik Laine and Jack Roslovic will shuffle up Columbus' lines, Robinson's spot in John Tortorella's lineup seems fairly secure thanks to his physical play and high compete level.

EDGE Analysis
Robinson followed his own shot and knocked home a loose puck from the bottom of the left faceoff circle, drawing Columbus to within 3-2 just 1:37 into the third period. It was the first career NHL playoff point for the 25-year-old, who logged just over 10 minutes of ice time. Robinson had seven goals and five assists in 50 games during the regular season, his first full year as an NHLer.

Robinson (undisclosed) is considered day-to-day ahead of Friday's matchup with Detroit, Alison Lukan of The Athletic reports.

Robinson agreed to terms on a two-year contract extension with Columbus on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Perhaps of biggest significance for Robinson's new deal is the fact that it will be a one-way contract once it kicks in for the 2020-21 campaign, making it harder for him to be sent to the minors. In 31 appearances this season, the winger tallied five goals, four assists and 40 shots while logging 10:54 of ice time per game. Even with his spot in the lineup more secure moving forward, the New Jersey native figures to remain in a bottom-six role, though he could get the occasional promotion due to injuries.

Robinson scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Robinson went seven games without a point and 10 without scoring prior to Tuesday's tally. The 24-year-old now has nine points, 32 shots on goal and 43 hits through 24 appearances. He'll likely remain in a bottom-six role until the Blue Jackets get some healthy bodies back.
