wldOn

This is the field used to determine the result, i.e. win, loss, or draw. Allowable options are "points", "games", or "shots".

Points at game scope

This is a list defining how points are accumulated from the shot differential in each of the games.

For example "points":{"atGame":[11,8,1,7,0,4,-2,1]} means a win by 11 shots or more is worth 8 points, a win = 7, a draw = 4, and a loss by 1 or 2 shots is worth 1 point.

Points at match scope

This a similar list defining how points are calculated from the aggregate score of all games. For example "points":{"atGame":[1,2,0,1],"atMatch":[1,2,0,1]} means game wins are worth 2, game draws =1, with similar points for the aggregate score of all games in the match.
