Need to finish the season going 5-2-1 to make it.

Every single year the last ten years (or perhaps longer, haven't checked past that) 96 has been enough in either conference to get in, and most years it's around 92-93. We could get 97 and not get in if the other teams we're competing with play roughly .500 (MIN 3-4-1, VAN 4-4, WPG 4-3, LA 5-3).
Even going 5-2-1 for 98 points, we could well STILL need the tiebreaker, in which case we need it to be LA or WPG.
WTF
