Why Émile Bouchard ranks #114 in Ice Hockey
Émile Bouchard ranks 114th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 1995th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 88, Longevity 88, Honours 92, 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 1941–1956 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1946, which sets the Peak component at 88. Honours 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 4, all-star selections 4, games played 785, career points 193.
Immediately ahead sits Frank Fredrickson on 87.0, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Charlie Conacher on 87.1. 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.
