A loss is a loss, but in the NHL not all loses are equal. The team played very well, and did walk with a point--it's better than nothing.

I guess we disagree then.
When a team does nothing but preach about the playoffs for years, doesn't make the playoffs for years, and then starts a short season off with one win and two pity points, it's just not acceptable.
The time for moral victories ended a long, long time ago. A loss is a loss. A win is a win. They have one win. For what this organization wants, it's not good enough.
