Why Angela James ranks #29 in Ice Hockey
Angela James ranks 29th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 1432nd of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 89.9 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 90, Peak 94, Longevity 84, Honours 90, Statistics 92. Those categories are normalised against the full Ice Hockey reference universe of 313 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.
The record covers 1985–2000 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1990, which sets the Peak component at 94. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes world championship titles 4, world championship goals 22, national league titles 8, hall of fame inductions 2.
Immediately ahead sits Valeri Kharlamov on 89.9, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Brian Leetch on 89.9. The position moves whenever the verified record moves: new titles, new seasons or a corrected source all feed straight back into the same formula, and every change is dated on this profile.
