Why Jack Laviolette ranks #243 in Ice Hockey

Jack Laviolette ranks 243rd among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 2729th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 83.0 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 78, Peak 88, Longevity 82, Honours 86, Statistics 82. 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 1904–1918 with 15 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1911, which sets the Peak component at 88. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 88 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes stanley cups 1, professional seasons 15, nha games 178, franchise founding roles 1.

Immediately ahead sits Moose Goheen on 83.0, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Mats Sundin on 82.8. 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.
