Standings Tie-Breakers
-
There’s pretty robust sort-order options for standings in SportsPress. But one option that I’d really like to be able to add has to do with wins in games between the tied teams. In the NHL, teams get 2 points for a win, and 1 point for an Overtime Loss. There’s a step in their tie-breaking procedure, though, where the team with the most points accrued in games between the tied teams is ranked higher.
For example, three teams are tied; they have the same amount of wins, and the same number of games played. Team A has lost to Team B and beaten Team C. Team B has beaten Teams A and C. Team C has lost to both Teams A and B. Team B would be ranked highest, Team A second, and Team C third.
