Why Billy Burch ranks #237 in Ice Hockey
Billy Burch ranks 237th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 2709th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 83.1 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 90, Longevity 76, Honours 84, Statistics 84. 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 1922–1933 with 12 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1925, which sets the Peak component at 90. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes hart trophy 1, lady byng trophy 1, nhl goals 137, nhl points 190.
Immediately ahead sits Susanna Tapani on 83.1, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Nathan MacKinnon on 82.9. 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.
