Why Brad Park ranks #36 in Ice Hockey

Brad Park ranks 36th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 1068th of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.6 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 84, Peak 92, Longevity 88, Honours 84, Statistics 92. Those categories are normalised against the full Ice Hockey reference universe of 399 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 1968–1985 with 17 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1973, which sets the Peak component at 92. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 92 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes career points 896, all-star selections 9, norris trophy runner-up finishes 6, nhl games played 1113.

Immediately ahead sits Riikka Sallinen on 87.6, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Toe Blake on 87.6. 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.
