Why Mark Recchi ranks #24 in Ice Hockey
Mark Recchi ranks 24th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 363rd of 1063 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 85.7 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 76, Peak 86, Longevity 94, Honours 86, Statistics 90. 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 1988–2011 with 21 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1992, which sets the Peak component at 86. Longevity is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes stanley cups 3, career points 1533, career goals 577, nhl games played 1652.
Immediately ahead sits Teemu Selänne on 86.8, a gap of 1.1 points. Directly behind is Patrick Roy on 87.6. 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.
