 He is best remembered for the game played on December 11, 1977, against the Cleveland Barons, in which he scored four goals and added four assists, becoming the first defenceman and only the fourth person in NHL history to record eight points (a feat accomplished only 15 times by 11 other players) in an NHL game.His plus/minus of +10 in that game is also an NHL record.Bladon's heavy slapshot from the point was a fixture of the Flyer's championship teams from the 1970s.
