Why Cindy Curley ranks #139 in Ice Hockey

Cindy Curley ranks 139th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 1772nd of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 79.3 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 94, Longevity 60, Honours 78, Statistics 86. 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 1986–1992 with 5 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 medals 1, goals at 1990 worlds 11, points at 1990 worlds 23, usa caps 30.

Immediately ahead sits Anna Borgqvist on 79.3, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Marián Gáborík on 79.3. 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.
