See for me the flaw in the NHL system isn't tge fact that the loser point exists, it's when teams have a high % of their wins in gimmicky 4on4 OT or shoot out. A team that gets more of than it's share of the coin toss that is the NHLs tie braking system is the team that is getting more than they deserve IMO.
I actually don't know, but I'm guessing a higher % of our wins have come in OT or shoot out than either the Jets or Kings.
