Why Igor Larionov ranks #94 in Ice Hockey
Igor Larionov ranks 94th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 1915th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 82, Peak 90, Longevity 90, Honours 90, 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 1981–2004 with 24 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1987, 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, olympic gold medals 2, world championship titles 4, nhl points 644.
Immediately ahead sits Foster Hewitt on 87.4, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Marie-Philip Poulin on 87.3. 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.
