Why Mike Modano ranks #21 in Ice Hockey
Mike Modano ranks 21st among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 1347th of 4013 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 90.4 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 88, Peak 93, Longevity 90, Honours 90, Statistics 92. 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 1989–2011 with 23 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1998, which sets the Peak component at 93. Peak is the defining strength of the profile at 93 out of 100, and it carries 20% of the final score. The underlying career record includes stanley cups 1, nhl points 1374, nhl goals 561, all-star selections 7.
Immediately ahead sits Vladislav Tretiak on 90.5, a gap of 0.1 points. Directly behind is Joe Malone on 90.3. 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.
