Robinson made his NHL debut on April 5, 2016 during a 5-3 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins and would play 12 shifts for 7:04 of ice-time while picking up two minor penalties.  Two nights later on April 7, Robinson notched his first career NHL goal, which turned out to be the game-winner during a 3-1 victory over the Florida Panthers.

The Bellmaur, New Jersey native joined the club in 2009-10 as an 18-year old rookie and would record 11 goals and 23 points in 49 games played.  During season two, Robinson was one of the club's offensive leaders, posting 38 points in 32 games played with the club before he was moved to finish out the season in the CCHL with the Nepean Raiders.

Congratulations to Buddy on living out his NHL Dream!
