Why Réjean Houle ranks #121 in Ice Hockey

Réjean Houle ranks 121st among Ice Hockey athletes on GOAT Rank and 1632nd of 2289 across every sport in the index. The published GOAT Score of 82.1 is the weighted result of five verified category scores: Dominance 72, Peak 84, Longevity 84, Honours 88, Statistics 86. Those categories are normalised against the full Ice Hockey reference universe of 399 records, not a shortlist, so the position reflects the whole sport rather than a handful of famous names.

The record covers 1969–1983 with 13 documented competitive seasons. The strongest single season in that series is 1974, which sets the Peak component at 84. Honours 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 5, career nhl games 635, career nhl points 408, career nhl goals 161.

Immediately ahead sits Fernie Flaman on 82.1, a gap of 0.0 points. Directly behind is Joe Hall on 81.9. 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.
