However their points percentage, which you and everyone else seem to get mixed up is 0.500 (this is also the most commonly used form of tracking a teams success)
There is no such thing as a half win. Yes you can still be awarded a point in a loss. But this is still a LOSS. When calculating win percentage its win or lose. Points dont matter.
Points percentage which you are confusing with win percentage DOES factor in points for losses.
Theres a difference between the two things. And I'm actually shocked this is going on 3 pages later. Its like the difference between net and gross profits and talking to someone who thinks its all the same.

Pretty sure everyone understands that and I don't think anyone is mixing anything up. But you consider the shootout loss a loss, I consider it a tie, but no shootout point. Just different viewpoints.
I guess it all comes down to how people view the shootout.
