Why Harry Hyland ranks #208 in Ice Hockey

Harry Hyland ranks 208th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 2556th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 84.1 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 92, Longevity 76, Honours 84, Statistics 88. 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 1908–1918 with 11 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1913, which sets the Peak component at 92. Peak 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 1, goals in one game 8, career goals 199, games played 157.

Immediately ahead sits Joe Thornton on 84.1, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is George Hay on 84.1. 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.
