Why Duncan Keith ranks #47 in Ice Hockey

Duncan Keith ranks 47th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 522nd of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 90, Longevity 86, Honours 88, 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 2002–2022 with 17 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2009, which sets the Peak component at 90. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 90 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes stanley cups 3, norris trophies 2, conn smythe trophies 1, olympic golds 2.

Immediately ahead sits Zdeno Chára on 84.1, a gap of -1.3 points. Directly behind is Sergei Fedorov on 84.9. 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.
