Why Marie-Philip Poulin ranks #39 in Ice Hockey
Marie-Philip Poulin ranks 39th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 484th of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.3 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 88, Peak 92, 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 2007–present with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 2021, 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 olympic golds 3, olympic medals 5, world championship golds 3, pwhl titles 1.
Immediately ahead sits Guy Lafleur on 86.6, a gap of -0.7 points. Directly behind is Scott Stevens on 85.0. 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.
