Oilers only have 1 less regulation loss than the Wings but 7 more wins. Wings feasting on Bettman points. May not be as mediocre as advertised. Better not start slow.

I can't stand the Bettman point. You are literally rewarding teams for losing the game and devaluing teams winning in regulation. The difference between a team wining a game outright in regulation or a team losing in OT is 1 pt. That makes no sense. It just keeps mediocre to bad teams in the race.
The real record of the Wings is 21-27. So 5 games under .500. It's even worse for the Flames who have lost 10 games in OT. The Oilers true win/loss record is 26-22. 6 games over .500, the Flames is 24-26, 3 games under yet they trail the Oilers by 2 points.

Well, that's how it manifests. The Bettman point was actually conceived as a bonus point for winning in overtime to encourage offense instead of playing for a tie rather than a bonus point for losing. I don't hate the change because the dead puck late 90s era was so bad. No one scored. No one shot. No one did anything. I do think 3-2-1-0 is an obvious solution.
In any event the record is the record and Detroit is only 7 points out of the playoffs so they have something to play for still. Even though their point differential isn't good and passing 6 teams is unlikely.
Please do not feed the bears. Feeding the bears creates a dependent population unable to survive on their own. Bears.
