No, a regulation tie that leads to an overtime loss is a newly rewarded outcome, which did not result in 1 point before in NHL history. That was 0. Both teams each got 1 for a drawn final game after the overtime session; a fair result.
They took ties away, so either you win or lose. There's no more need for points unless they bring ties back.
