He recorded the highest point total of his NHL career in his first season in the league with 27 points in 44 games. He won a Cup with the Leafs in 1932 and had an assist on Ken Doraty's playoff overtime goal in 1933 that ended the second longest game in NHL history. Blair was the first player in NHL history to wear a mustache.
