Why Dickie Boon ranks #290 in Ice Hockey

Dickie Boon ranks 290th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 3006th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 79.9 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 88, Longevity 70, Honours 84, Statistics 80. 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 1897–1905 with 9 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1901, which sets the Peak component at 88. Peak 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 stanley cups 1, stanley cup defences 2, senior seasons 9, league titles 2.

Immediately ahead sits Gordie Drillon on 80.0, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Erik Karlsson on 79.7. 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.
