A team that goes 5 wins and 5 losses over 10 games would have the same points percentage as a team that had 0 wins 0 losses and 10 OT. Both would have .500 Points Percentage.

no sorry they don't do point percentage its games won by total games played period.....you are reading way too much in this and that point garbage is for TIE BREAKERS (and its like the 3rd or 4th down anyway)...Now IF you want to get complicated throw out the shootout wins (which has happened since 2011) which leaves the ROW (regulation and overtime wins) your example of the 5-5 and 0-0-10 the 0-0-10 is out while the 5-5 is in. the last number is OT LOSSES again sorry....
