On a plane, so details sketchy, but hearing Buffalo and Columbus have been talking about Eric Robinson. It makes sense.
Robinson is a 28-year-old left winger who has played in 7 games so far this year for the Blue Jackets. He has tallied just 1 goal so far this season.
This move, while the details not yet revealed, is likely part of the Blue Jackets rebuild that will see them try and look for long-term assets this year.
