jloos Posted November 16, 2003 Share Posted November 16, 2003 Anyone else impressed with Bina on Sat? He moved the puck nicely and played very solid D. I think he earned some playing time for the Denver series. The Sioux seem to be one regular D man short with Hale, Marvin, Foyt and Bina shifting around.

Fedorov Posted November 16, 2003 Share Posted November 16, 2003 I will admit that Bina has improved a lot, but I think he still needs to keep working. I was very impressed with his shot blocking. I guess we will have a possible fourth goalie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diggler Posted November 17, 2003 Share Posted November 17, 2003 I think if Bina keeps getting to play, he'll become a good 6th Dman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoteauRinkRat Posted November 17, 2003 Share Posted November 17, 2003 I also was very impressed with his shot blocking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we will have a possible fourth goalie. What? I didn't quite hear you A key to good defense is good positioning. This is what Bina had all of Saturday's game. Unlike previous appearances (what you call appearances anyways), Bina didn't quite have that. I wonder how many bruises he had when he finally woke up today There was one block I saw, but not who it was though, where the puck hit so hard we could hear the sound of the puck hitting the Sioux player. I wonder if that was another Bina block. On a somewhat amusing note: Bina guarding the front of the net. Think about it. It's humourous. Especially when the next unit comes out and Greene or Smaby takes his place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diggler Posted November 17, 2003 Share Posted November 17, 2003 I liked it when Bina knocked Hendricks on his a$$. Outweighed by 25 pounds and he still plants the guy on the ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fedorov Posted November 17, 2003 Share Posted November 17, 2003 I still want to see Foyt given a real chance. I think he is a better defenseman, and now that Brandt is playing more we don't need someone just to block shots and touch up the puck on icings.

I thought he played well and moved the puck nicely against Yale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarzUND Posted November 17, 2003 Share Posted November 17, 2003 Obviously I'm a bit biased towards Bina, I got to watch him play last year for the Lincoln Stars, after missing most of the season due to a freak injury, he developed into on of our top d-men. He had lots of ice time, including PP and PK units. I hope he continues to improve and develops into a solid D-man for the Sioux Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNDProud Posted November 17, 2003 Share Posted November 17, 2003 I was impressed by his play too. He really stood up to the much bigger guys and was even able to hold his ground with them. Good for Robby. I hope we get to see more of him. He looked a whole lot better then Marvin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goon Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 Although not big he seems to be one tough.... I wonder how much he will get to play, I say let him play some more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jloos Posted November 18, 2003 Author Share Posted November 18, 2003 I still want to see Foyt given a real chance. I think he is a better defenseman, and now that Brandt is playing more we don't need someone just to block shots and touch up the puck on icings. I haven't seen them play enough to say who is a better D. I would argue Foyt having a good game against Yale is not really comparable to Bina having a good game against SC. I would like to see Foyt given a chance against a good team. From what I have seen- Bina is hands down a better skater, probably better all around player, but his size limits what he can do in front of the net and in the corners. All I know for sure is Marvin scares me at D, he makes a decent 4th line winger though. FYI College hockey does not have the touch up rule.
