Thomas, George Bladon was born in Edmonton, Alberta. He is a former Professional Hockey Defenceman. He played nine seasons in The NHL for The Philadelphia Flyers, Pittsburgh Penguins, Edmonton Oilers, Winnipeg Jets and Detroit Red Wings. He won The Stanley Cup with The Flyers in 1974 and 1975.

While playing for The Edmonton Maple Leafs in 1968 in The AJHL, Bladon was indefinitely suspended after breaking the jaw of an opponent. In protest of the suspension, The Maple Leafs threatened to pull out of The AJHL entirely. After The Maple Leafs appealed the suspension, The Alberta Amateur Hockey Association agreed to reinstate Bladon.

After impressing The Flyers Coaching Staff, Bladon was named to their opening night roster for The 1972 / 1973 Season. The Flyers’ Head Coach, Fred Shero later said that “Bladon was playing under more pressure than any other Rookie because he was used in every position”. By Mid-February, Bladon ranked high among the NHL’s Rookie Scoring Leaders with Eight Goals and 23 Assists!!!
