Gelinas again; Robinson an all star

Matt Robinson is an all star.

Matt Robinson is an all star.

 

A couple quick things:

Marty Magers is off IR, but Marc-Antoine Gelinas will apparently get the start tonight in Quad City. Jason Goulet is in the lineup, too. Ryan Hand goes on IR.

Matt Robinson, who has been on a tear since joining the Thunder in a trade, has been named a CHL all star reserve. 

You can read all about it here.

The Thunder obtained Robinson from Laredo for future considerations. Speaking of future considerations,” they’re two of the most annoying words I deal with as the Thunder’s beat writer. Sometimes, future considerations amount to literally nothing. One team is just happy to get rid of a player.  Sometimes, coaches won’t reveal exactly what the future considerations are. In any case, getting Robinson is clearly a steal for the Thunder, no matter the future considerations.
