Hurricanes' Eric Robinson: Nets equalizer Friday
Rotowire
Robinson scored a goal in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Panthers.

Hurricanes' Eric Robinson: Sends helper in win
Rotowire
Robinson notched an assist in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Rangers.
Robinson set up Jesperi Kotkaniemi's game-tying goal in the third period. Both of those forwards were seeing second-line minutes earlier in the month, but they played on the fourth line with Jackson Blake in this contest. Robinson has five points over his last six outings and is up to a total of 14 points, 24 shots on net, 31 hits and a plus-9 rating through 22 appearances. The Hurricanes' offense is flexible and balanced, so Robinson may retain some appeal in deeper fantasy formats, though that could dry up if his reduced ice time (7:43 in Wednesday's game) becomes a trend.

Rotowire
Robinson generated a goal on his only shot and added two assists Sunday in a 4-1 win over St. Louis.

Robinson has recorded two multi-point performances over his last four games after having none through the first 13 contests of the campaign. The 29-year-old has fit in well on Carolina's second line alongside Jesperi Kotkaniemi and Necas -- Robinson has logged five goals, seven assists and a plus-11 rating across 17 outings. After banking 10 points over 47 regular-season games split between Buffalo and Columbus in 2023-24, Robinson has already surpassed that number with his new club.

Rotowire
Robinson scored a goal in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Penguins.
Robinson has scored in back-to-back games and has four points over his last five outings.

He has seven points, 15 shots on net, 15 hits and a plus-10 rating over 12 contests in 2024-25, and with the balance in the Hurricanes' offense, he could continue to be a steady contributor.

Rotowire
Robinson notched an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-3 rating in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Capitals.

Hurricanes' Eric Robinson: Adds helper Tuesday
Rotowire
Robinson provided an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and two PIM in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Oilers.

The 29-year-old winger has added eight hits, six shots on net, four PIM and a plus-3 rating through five appearances.

Rotowire
Robinson produced an assist, two shots on goal and two PIM in Friday's 4-1 win over the Penguins.

He's added four shots on net, four hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating to begin his Hurricanes career, but he's unlikely to score enough to make an impact in fantasy.

Blue Jackets' Eric Robinson: Pots GWG for first goal of season
Rotowire
Robinson scored the game-winning goal in Friday's 2-1 victory over the Devils.
All the scoring came in the first period, and Robinson's tally came with just 37 seconds left in the frame -- Justin Danforth found him wide open at the New Jersey blue line with a pass from the Columbus end, and Robinson finished his breakaway by going top shelf over Akira Schmid's glove. It was Robinson's first NHL goal of the season in three games. He has spent most of the season with AHL Cleveland. Robinson, who had 12 goals in 72 games last season, offers decent depth to the organization, but as the Blue Jackets improve their talent base with additions such as Adam Fantilli and Dmitri Voronkov, players like Robinson get squeezed out of regular roles.
