Why Michel Goulet ranks #110 in Ice Hockey
Michel Goulet ranks 110th among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 1986th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 87.1 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 84, Peak 92, Longevity 86, Honours 82, Statistics 94. 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 1979–1994 with 16 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1985, which sets the Peak component at 92. Statistics is the defining strength of the profile at 94 out of 100, and it carries 15% of the final score. The underlying career record includes career goals 548, career points 1152, 50-goal seasons 4, all-star selections 5.
Immediately ahead sits Dale Hawerchuk on 87.1, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Lionel Conacher on 87.1. 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.
