Nets goal in return Robinson scored a goal on three shots, added two hits and went plus-3 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Sabres.

Impact Robinson returned from a six-game absence and played 12:22 on the fourth line. That was his second-highest ice-time total this season. He's produced four goals, one assist, 12 shots on net, 11 hits and a plus-5 rating through eight outings and should continue to be a decent depth forward for the Hurricanes. He likely won't sustain his current pace, but he's still a viable option in banger leagues.

Shifts to injured reserve Robinson (upper body) has been moved to injured reserve Tuesday, according to the NHL media site.

Impact It was reported Thursday that Robinson is set for an extended absence, so his placement on injured reserve doesn't come as a surprise. The Hurricanes currently have only 12 healthy forwards on their roster, so they may call someone up from AHL Chicago in short order. Robinson has three goals and four points over seven appearances this season.

Poised for absence Robinson (upper body) is expected to be out for an extended period of time after leaving Thursday's game versus the Avalanche, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Impact Robinson and William Carrier (lower body) are both expected to be shelved for a while. Mark Jankowski will take one of the openings in the lineup, but Robinson and Carrier will likely need to land on injured reserve to accommodate roster moves for one or two depth forwards from AHL Chicago.

Departs from game Robinson (upper body) won't finish Thursday's game versus the Avalanche.

Impact The hits just keep coming for the Hurricanes -- defenseman K'Andre Miller (lower body) was a late scratch and forward William Carrier (lower body) exited after the first period. Robinson's injury adds to the team's precarious situation during this road trip. If Robinson and Carrier are both unavailable Saturday versus the Stars, Carolina may have to play a man short or make multiple roster moves to put together a full lineup. Robinson scored a goal, his third of the season, prior to his exit.

Impact Robinson has had a strong start to 2025-26 despite playing on the fourth line. He has two goals, one assist, six shots on net, three hits and a plus-3 rating over three appearances, getting on the scoresheet in each game.

Tallies in win Robinson scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Devils.

Impact Robinson set career highs with 14 goals and 32 points in 82 regular-season games a year ago. He's off to a positive start again in 2025-26, though offense could be hard to come by in a fourth-line role. The depth of the Hurricanes' forward group makes it unlikely Robinson will see a stretch of time higher up the lineup, but he'll bring physicality and depth scoring in his role, assuming he can keep Mark Jankowski in the press box.
