Believe it or not, the 9th placed team according to the magic number is the San Jose Sharks. In order to calculate the magic # properly, the 1-8 teams are based off the maximum potential points rather than the standings.
In order to be better than the Sharks, you need 117 points and that's what it's calculated off of.
