Blacker has 235 games of AHL experience, mostly in Toronto and Norfolk. Midseason last year, he was traded to Florida and was assigned to San Antonio. He played 40 games in the Alamo City and looks to be a solid AHL defenseman for Texas. Blacker even played a single game with the Ducks in 2014-15, to date his only NHL game.
