Cratter Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 Maybe this has been posted, but: http://www.grandforks.com/mld/grandforks/s...ota/7933536.htm If you ask me he has got some of the some of the greatest potential on the team. I can see Bina as a starter in a few years, if not quite possibly a captain (or associate). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarzUND Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Finally people are discovering what I found out last year Even though Robbie is small in size, his heart and skill are equal to a player 6'0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagies Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Good for Robbie. Sounds like a guy you can really root for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goon Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 Good for Robbie. Sounds like a guy you can really root for. I agree, got to love a 5'8" player that plays more like he is 6' tall. My assessment of him is that Robbie tough as nails and plays with a lot of heart, has some nice offensive skills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinnesotaNorthStar Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 What Bina lacks in size, he makes up for in hustle, grit, and determination. I've loved his play so far this year, and hope it continues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwing77 Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 What Bina lacks in size, he makes up for in hustle, grit, and determination. I've loved his play so far this year, and hope it continues. I thought Bina did pretty good tonight. Very aggressive player, but very good. What he lacked in decision making in the first few games he played, he has improved upon greatly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoteauRinkRat Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 Obviously Bina is impressing everyone with his increased icetime throughout this season. His aggresiveness is really fun to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinnesotaNorthStar Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 I love watching bigger guys try to line Bina up and drop him. Half the time they get dropped, and the other half...it's like running into a brick wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fedorov Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 It didn't seem like Bina played as much as he usually does last night. I would expect the opposite after his great weekend in Madison. I also don't understand the purpose of sitting the fourth line most of the game. I'm sure Massen and Hale were jealous they didn't get to ride the bench all night.

SiouxMeNow Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 best comparison from the herald was "running into a fire hydrant!"...best of luck Robbie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jloos Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 Finally people are discovering what I found out last year Even though Robbie is small in size, his heart and skill are equal to a player 6'0. Starz Fan, what kind of offensive numbers did Bina put up when he was down there? I remember watching him in high school, he was a very offensive D-man, I always wondered why he didn't move up to forward with his size and skill. That is until this year, he is probably the strongest player on the team (taking size into account). He is the only D-man that rarely gets a shot blocked, he sees the ice really well. If he continues to develop he may be the "offensive D-man" the Sioux have been lacking. I'd still put my money on Radke filling that role next year, but I can see Bina having a good offensive year also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amn5hol Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 Here's the link for Bina's stats last year: http://www.pointstreak.com/prostats/player...10&seasonid=184 He was injured at the beginning of the year, but by the end of the year/playoffs he was the main quarterback on the Stars powerplay.
