Why Daniel Alfredsson ranks #77 in Ice Hockey

Daniel Alfredsson ranks 77th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 728th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 80.3 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 74, Peak 82, Longevity 88, Honours 76, Statistics 84. Those categories are normalised against the full Ice Hockey reference universe of 395 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 1994–2014 with 19 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2005, which sets the Peak component at 82. Longevity is the defining strength of the profile at 88 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes nhl points 1157, nhl goals 444, olympic golds 1, calder trophy 1.

Immediately ahead sits Victor Hedman on 82.6, a gap of 2.3 points. Directly behind is Maria Rooth on 82.4. 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.
