Playing career

Blacker started his junior career with the Windsor Spitfires in the OHL, winning the 2009 Memorial Cup.[1] After finishing his junior season with Owen Sound in 2010, he was signed to a three-year entry level contract with Toronto Maple Leafs, and played professionally with the Toronto Marlies of the American Hockey League.[2]

On November 16, 2013, he was traded to the Anaheim Ducks along with a conditional third-round draft pick and the Ducks original seventh-round pick (which was previously traded to Toronto) in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft in exchange for Peter Holland and Brad Staubitz.[3]

In the off-season, Blacker was released to free agency by the Panthers after he failed to be tendered a qualifying offer. On July 7, 2015, unable to attain a NHL offer, Blacker signed a one-year AHL contract with the Texas Stars.[6]

Following the 2015–16 campaign with the Stars, he opted to continue his career overseas, signing with the Nürnberg Ice Tigers of the German top-tier Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL) on April 28, 2016.[7] After one year in Germany, Blacker headed to China, inking a deal with KHL side HC Kunlun Red Star in June 2017.[8] In his debut season in the KHL in 2017–18, Blacker registered 9 points in 49 games for the blueline.
