Why Bill Cook ranks #67 in Ice Hockey
Bill Cook ranks 67th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 1736th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 88.2 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 88, Peak 94, Longevity 80, Honours 88, 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 1926–1937 with 12 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1932, 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 stanley cups 2, scoring titles 2, career goals 229, career points 367.
Immediately ahead sits Dickie Moore on 88.2, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Phil Esposito on 88.1. 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.
