Why Håkan Loob ranks #57 in Ice Hockey

Håkan Loob ranks 57th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 595th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 84.9 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 80, Peak 90, Longevity 82, Honours 88, Statistics 86. 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 1979–1996 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1988, 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 1, olympic golds 1, world championship golds 2, nhl 50-goal seasons 1.

Immediately ahead sits Patrik Eliáš on 83.4, a gap of -1.5 points. Directly behind is Daniel Sedin on 83.0. 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.
