Why Eric Lindros ranks #131 in Ice Hockey

Eric Lindros ranks 131st among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 2107th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 86.5 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 88, Peak 95, Longevity 74, Honours 86, Statistics 90. 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 1992–2007 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1995, which sets the Peak component at 95. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 95 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes hart trophy 1, nhl points 865, nhl goals 372, all-star selections 6.

Immediately ahead sits Bryan Trottier on 86.5, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Ken Dryden on 86.4. 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.
