Why Cy Denneny ranks #170 in Ice Hockey
Cy Denneny ranks 170th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 2331st of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 84, Peak 92, Longevity 76, Honours 90, Statistics 86. 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 1917–1929 with 13 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1922, 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 stanley cups 5, nhl scoring titles 1, career goals 248, seasons played 12.
Immediately ahead sits Johnny Bucyk on 85.4, a gap of -0.1 points. Directly behind is Pat LaFontaine on 85.5. 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.
