Why do I lose so many points going down a rank?

I'm thoroughly confused by the way points work in Hero League. Based on my experience with the game, I think there's 300 points in each rank. I often run into this scenario: I'll be a certain rank with less than 100 points. I'll lose a game and get -100. But instead of going from rank X with 50 points to rank Y with 250 points, I go to rank Y with 150 points. Can anyone offer insight into why it works like this?
